Svantaggi
Lack of direction and assistance from line management. Often management are too caught up writing reports and presentations for senior leadership and do not have the time to offer help or support on the ground. Senior leadership do a good job of preaching the company values but at every opportunity break and ignore them. Do as I say, not as I do mentality. Senior leadership and management are very good at lip service. They do not listen to the day-to-day concerns of staff, and when they do listen the actions which follow demonstrate they have not. This has created a great disparity and resentment between the management and 'the rest'. The imperative is to deliver the requested workload regardless of the impact on people's health and well being. There are known staffing issues, yet management and senior management expect the same results to be delivered. High work stress due to volume of work and lack of support. You are expected to magic up solutions at the whim of a senior management request even when they know the constraints teams are under. Disparity of pay within job roles. You get stuck at a level with your pay band with no way of bridging the gap with your colleagues.
