Svantaggi
Company does not manage large projects well, and has lost business and seen its reputation tarnished as a result. Arvato NA specializes in Hybris consulting, and has benefited from the buoyant Hybris market. But it now faces competition from leaner agencies. Prospects are murky at best. Hiring and promotions seem based on interpersonal factors and ties to the management, rather than technical depth. Technical leads are often inexperienced and prone to mistakes. At least one "Hybris architect" at the company is unfamiliar with Hybris. Little analysis is done prior to writing code ... the "ready, fire, aim" design method seems to predominate. Since analysis is superficial, software frequently needs to be reworked.. Critically, accurate estimates of times required for deliverables cannot be made. Final outcome : missed deadlines and unhappy clients. Management style within software development teams tends to be autocratic, with little appreciation for the value of building consensus. Technical work can be routine and boring at times, especially on larger projects Helpful
