Svantaggi
What started out as a cutting edge innovative disruptive healthcare company slowly turned into a highly political, lazy, toxic workplace as it grew. The IT division which operates out of NYC, enables the business and provides it the tools and technologies required for running the BPCI program. However, the CEO and founder mostly ignore the division and hardly make any trips here nor seem to care or question why stuff breaks all the time or why things are getting thrown out after years of development and being re-written. Top cons... - Yes men with no technical skills being promoted as directors and put in charge of software projects which they are not competent to lead. - Opaque management style. (E,g people whom you work with on a daily basis get fired and its not formally communicated nor any explanation given. You just hear it word of mouth as hallway conversation) - Highly anti-agile and more waterfall making projects stay in development for years without anyone having the opportunity to use it, provide feedback and improve it. - The Devops group is supposed to enable engineers to be more productive by helping them develop, build and deploy quicker. But not at Remedy. Teams constantly feel the need to battle and justify new tools and technologies because Devops throws walls as its more work for them. - Highly locked down environment, that reasonable technical tools are prohibited from being installed, hampering productivity and engineers needing to take longer and more complex strategies thus wasting company time and money.
