There really isn't enough space here to write the bad. But we can summarize some of the bigger problems:
- There's no clear direction from senior management. The direction seems to shift constantly.
- Middle management is not supported, and left to fight to keep their employees from being crushed by the shifting tides
- Mainline employees are overworked, under-compensated, and largely ignored.
- They spout the catch-phrase SoMuchGood, but give pathetic merit raises and offer little opportunity or room for employees to grow and move vertically in their roles. Your mega efforts won't buy you any additional dollars or positions. High-performance isn't incentivized, but Mediocrity is rewarded.
- No one has a voice. You can raise issues, but they die at Sr. Management. That's unfortunate.
- Sales team doesn't understand all of the services that Navisite offers, which is a huge missed opportunity.
- People are seen as equal in terms of talent, skills, etc..... which means in their eyes a cheap resource is as good as the most highly-skilled, well trained resource. We all know how that works out in the end. Sadly promotions and hiring decisions are made with this (flawed) logic. Only utilization percentages matter in the end.
- Few people you talk to have any faith in the C-Level at all. They see tons of acquisitions but no plan on how to use the newly-bought product talents and superpowers.
