Pros

Respect, acknowledgement of effort, fairness, compensation, personal development opportunities, benefits, people, culture, work load, access to resources.

Cons

Metadata. Non-cloud based in a world of cloud computing.

Limited test servers. Shared QA environment for testing with global access for all users. This can lead to:

  • Outages
  • Instability of the test environment
  • Resource consumption and overload
Advice to Management

Trust the advice of your subordinates. Posing a challenge to a statement is one thing, but personal understanding and opinion should take a back seat to the person with detailed knowledge.
