Pros

A leading-edge financial services company dedicated to core business principles. However, the technology area is heavily staffed by non-Americans who tend to converse in Urdu with each other during the workday.

Cons

Contract technologists are not fluent in English comprehension. Most prefer chat windows to communicate, where the English words can be seen, rather than face-to-face meetings.

Advice to Management

Stop emailing, get out of your office, and manage your staff to see what’s actually going on day to day.
