Ever since I went into the IT department I've seen some people I worked with get promoted into positions of management. Normally this is good and the people who got promoted are generally pretty good people, good personalities, hard working, fair, etc..
But a few months after they get promoted it all goes to crap. their personality goes, they become judgmental, and do everything they can to get preferred days off (weekends, nights, etc..).
Some can attribute it to stress but I can't see stress doing all this with as many people. Do they think that they won't go any higher so they might as well do the job to their pleasing?
I've seen only one instance where the promoted person did not turn negative (this person actually improved, a lot with the promotion).
