Within my journey at Cisco, I have seen 17 LRs, the most astonishing fact is always the ICs are always the ones who get the most hits with the story of restructuring, Organizational change, strategy change, and Bla...But the leaders in management sit in their position like a Game of Thrones for years and even decades doing the same Job, performing the same role, same responsibilities, same work day in and day out and they never get LRed not even once due to politics and favoritism.
I know a famous TAC Manager who has been sitting in the same job(Same Title) for almost 28 years and has never been touched in the last 29LRs, while he chopped heads from his team, and a director in the same role for almost 24yrs, and another manager for almost 20yrs, While they chop heads of ICs.
