[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I agree with others that you obviously shouldn’t say that you are looking.

BUT I think you should take the opportunity, if asked, to suggest one or two actionable things that could make the work environment better.  Importantly, I don’t mean complain or say anything negative.  Rather say some things that could help in a forward looking way.

[b]The fact that they are conducting the interviews means that somebody sees a problem and wants to try to fix it.  You can help them without sabotaging yourself.[/quote]

I think the fact that they are conducting interviews means someone wants to CYA. I’d be they knew about the problem and ignored it. Or they are really, really dumb.

Something similar going on in my org. If they cannot see the obvious, I cannot help them. It has been pointed out. They do not care.

Buh-bye!!!![/quote]

I have to agree. If someone higher up really wanted to know what was going wrong, a good manager would casually drop by the office for a chat or take you to lunch. Setting up formal “interviews” reeks of ass covering and/or bad management. Either they know what’s wrong and they don’t want ti fix it (especially if it involves diverting money from their private jet line item) or they have a middle level of management that is lying to them.
