Svantaggi
- Reduced resourcing / small teams means consistent heavy workloads and over-reliance on a small number of key staff as the norm. - Limited opportunities for upward career progression or to think beyond the day to day. - Occasions of poor internal communication on key decisions so certain teams are excluded. Quality of experience varies a lot by which department you work within. - Process change and new approaches are be slow/difficult as there is a tendency to over complicate and under commuicate. - Top down management - it is not as person centred as they want to be. Starting to be more corporate in style of leadership.
