The worst run company I ever worked for was an financial services company that had ballooned as a result of multiple mergers.
Each time they rolled out the efficiencies, synergies and economies of scale spiel and each time it got worse as they patched a new IT system onto an old one.
- sdoering 5y agoI don't know what you are talking about. There is nothing bloated about multiple systems necessary to track my time or my expenses while project managers also insist that you use jira to track time because they otherwise have no way of reporting time spent on a per project level to the client or deliver any reporting more frequent than every fortnight (capabilities we had before the merger). Or the necessity to forbid ssh connections in the corporate networks as well as ssh ports being open on cloud instances. If you need a shell use the one the cloud provider provides you in the browser. While also installing software on your work machine that MITMles you opening up ssl connections (just for security reasons) at least in countries that don't have strong employer protection institutions in place (like mine). /s Pardon my sarcasm. I hear you.
