Kontras
-Management is very insecure and won't delegate responsibility. -They say they are a technology company, but have nobody in management that understands the current landscape of technology. For some companies this is OK, but they won't let anyone below them have input on how to improve things. As a result the architecture is very fragile and suggestions are ignored. The technology running the system is 10 years old and no plans of changing. -Management cannot execute on a roadmap. As a result the most recent complaint always being the most important thing to work on and the features that could push the company forward rarely see the light of day -The codebase is extremely fragile and QA is insufficient so you are constantly firefighting. There is so little expertise on how the whole system works that you are stuck going to one person for answers. Most of the time it takes days to get an answer if you get one, and most of the time it is more of a best guess than the right answer because of how big the system has grown. -Politics and brown-nosing is extremely prevalent. It makes it very difficult to get things done.
