Horrible bureaucracy for managers
Horrible bureaucracy for managers
Interesting group of people, working on good technology.
Good sense of long-term vision by the execs.
General culture of being willing to take risks on new technology.
Bureaucracy for anyone trying to hire people, buy capital equipment, or add a vendor to the approved vendors list is horrible.
Inter-team petty politics, particularly by some Support managers, is a pain.
Strategy seems to change too frequently to be able to implement effectively.
Too many people in different customer advocacy roles just trying to justify their own jobs.
They've promised for over a year to:
- Make it easier for employees to get our jobs done.
- Stem the attrition in engineering.
Stop promising and start delivering, ensuring REAL changes are made. Streamline hiring, streamline procurement, make compensation competitive, and provide realistic possibilities for raises and promotions.
