What did you like most about the interview process?

Discussing the future direction of the company and how I would fit in and contribute

What are some of the best things about your team?

The talented people I work with are the only thing that keeps me going. They have skills, personalities, perspective, and most important - empathy.

What needs to change to make the company culture better?

Realistic expectations for what employees can do. There were reasons Bluewolf was acquired and those positive attributes should be returned to instead of being eliminated.

Why do you feel undervalued and what would make you feel better about your compensation?

Medical insurance with out of network benefits so we don't have to take a day off to drive to a specialist. Actually having a bonus instead of just sending communications about how wonderfully the company is doing.

What does the leadership team need to get better at?

Recognize that you have burnt out your people. We aren't machines. We have families and lives. There should not be an expectation that we are available nights and weekends. You can't bill full-time then do everything else asked above and beyond 44 hours a week.

What's going wrong and how can it be improved?

Large projects are poorly organized. We pretend to be Agile but just use its vocabulary since IBM is stuck with a waterfall approach to everything. Don't promise the moon and the stars just to get a deal signed. It always comes back to bite you.
