Svantaggi
Observed a trend where there is age discrimination going on--saw a pattern where older workers were resigning. Also saw a concentration of Northern or Canadian women filling roles across one job description. Critical feedback was provided that was oddly/coincidentally similar to what other employees (at multiple levels) were doing. The following were observed within 3 months. One executive manager told the wrong PM that countries were being added to their study. An administrative assistant sent out an invite for a BID defense to a global distribution list and then apologized and cancelled the meeting. A project director listed an individual from the sponsor side twice--once as a sponsor employee and once as a CRO employee. A project director called one of their team members by the wrong name when they already knew that person. Negative feedback was given to line manager/HR that a new employee was getting two roles in a certain department confused; then an email arrived within days saying that there was confusion and now both of the roles would attend meetings. Some of the feedback was simply untrue and bordered on slander (i.e., poor typing skills). One executive manager gave instructions on performing a task that were contradictory to another project director's instructions on how to perform the same task (i.e., timing of when to perform). Contract analysts did not know how to amend a budget grid to effect a certain item being added, nor did the department stakeholder who actually performed the task. SOPs called for documents to be completed that had team action items listed in 5 different places (2 excel, 1 word and 2 system). A project director gave critical feedback about how a PM completed a task (i.e., requesting from a functional lead) and then that PD completed the task in exactly the same way. A department head did not realize that their employee was out sick for more than a week and continued to assign that person to a task for a study team, while the study team continued to request a status update on that person due to non-response. Multiple tickets were raised with IT about laptop performing badly and becoming frozen, and only after 4 tickets were raised was a scan performed to find malware and viruses on the laptop. Outlook became non-responsive more than every 15 mins and remained that way for weeks.
