Engineering staff is not valued. Example: the company executives with posh offices in the parent company building moved us off to a rehabbed office park... but they stayed behind in the nice digs. Sales team over-promised customers and failed to deliver - but engineering took the blame. Recent "pep" talk went as follows: "Don't expect any thanks for your work as long as the product is working, only expect feedback if the product is not working." (That really happened!) Incentives that were promised have not appeared - honestly it looks like the incentive program was designed with unrealistic goals so that it would never go into effect - there is some real heartburn in the ranks over this. Funny thing is had the promises not been made nobody would be upset. Also management method of dealing with the nonexistent bonuses and raises is to simply not say anything and hope nobody notices. We do.
