Svantaggi
- We have lost lots of great staff. - Management focused on budgets and time sheeting every detail. - Promotions can take a long time - there are great people who have 5-10 years experience and still not at "Senior" level and 20+ years experience and still not at "Principal" level. - The emphasis in "Leading" projects has shifted to checking staff have completed the 2 parallel time sheet systems properly - instead of effectively collaborating with the client, to understand the project and make sure a quality delivery is made. - Computer systems a bit dated - takes 15 minutes to log on. - No annual pay increases to keep up with inflation. - Insufficient improvement of processes and proactive involvement by QA. - Upper management give the impression that they don't trust their staff (even heads of function). - If weekend working is required you won't get paid for the first 5 hours work. - Issues with generic templates in Word and power point making some work frustrating.
