[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]CNA has too many line item VPs. Some who can’t even speak or put together PPT presentations. $250k-$300k salaries. [/quote]

CNA has 20 senior executives listed on their webpage. That seems quite excessive.

About 450 total people in the CNA FFRDC.  450/20 = 22.5 people per executive. That Span of Control seems way too small. [/quote]

Add in IPR...probably about 600 total employees. [/quote]

And a lot of the execs are functionals, like HR. It’s not a fair analysis. [/quote]

Yeah, I doubt that general counsel has a lot of people working for him.

Anyway, eight execs in the FFRDC. Looks like a head guy and seven “division” or “program” leads under him. 450/7 = 64, which is reasonable. The “data science division” seems a bit out of place among those others, but I guess that’s a bandwagon everyone has to jump on.

There are SVPs and VPs that are dead weight on the IPR side...they don't market or write proposals. Not my experience with true gov contracting firms.
