The company is too huge, slow-moving, and sluggish. We need more ways of getting things done faster. It would help a lot if there was an easier way to reach employees within the company. We also need more visibility to product groups. It can be very daunting for someone who is starting afresh.
Also, there is too much shuffling of upper management and product groups and not enough focus on long-term strategy. The lack of openness is also a bad thing. It's about time more stuff was open-sourced. It would lead to bugs being discovered earlier, causing less of a problem.
The company needs to be lean and mean. Some major restructuring is required.
