Tulip reviews

There are big organizational and management problems in the software department. Teams don't coordinate so nobody knows what anyone else is doing. Decisions get made and nobody knows why or by whom. Because the teams are divided up with unclear and sometimes actually conflicting delineation of responsibility, there's friction. It's not clear who calls the shots so often times conflicting calls get made, only to surface after work has been completed and people are left asking "how did this happen?" It really feels like there are 4 separate software departments each with their own cultures and ideas about how to work. Then, once in a while, the CEO will appear and mandate something as specific as how the code is structured. Whether or not you have an opportunity to advance as a dev and do what you want to do, and how much stress you're under, really depends on what team you end up on. Even whether or not you can switch teams completely depends on where you are.

- high level management isn't able to effective manage people. - constant change in leadership roles and in key senior positions. - poor morale because staff is overworked. - highly political, if you're not on the radar with senior management, you have no chance to advance, get support. Very Black or White in how you are 'marked'. - expect to work long hours for long periods. Its a marathon with no end in sight. You better have stamina. - Management listens to its own press despite very clear indication of what it needs to do to improve. - No transparency so what is said and broadcast isn't really the reality of what is happening on the back end. - No one to turn to for support. Not a Team based environment despite what it looks to be.
