- Better salary than most local opportunities.
- Opportunities to work in complex, high-performance systems.
- Catered lunch.
- Management is unbalanced: focused on short term initiatives, projects and deliverables, disregarding people and processes, thus making tremendous blunders that last multiple years. This ends being unnecessarily frustrating.
- Technically limited to a few development tools and architectures that are not common in the industry and even less in other industries.
- 9hr work day, and zero flexibility.
- Terrible office spaces: high density, zero privacy, uniform/machine-like spaces.
-
People are not machines, nor resources, but humans, and thus should not be managed as such. You need to strive to be good managers by first acknowledging this fact.
-
Also, remember processes: there's too much disorganization. Start by listening to the cries of the many people that are frustrated by the lack of a clear and good organization.
-
You need to become more balanced, and work harder on people and processes. Sadly this requires of you a change of mind and more effort, thus being unlikely to happen unless fresh attitudes and people are brought into supervision roles.
