- Fear of layoffs in the near future are causing serious morale issues.
- Projects and initiatives are rarely seen through to completion.
- Teams mostly operate in silos; leading to major tech sprawl, and no standardization of hardware or software.
- Cross team interactions are often adversarial.
- Firefighting IT related issues is a good portion of your job; no matter which department within IT or your current title.
- IT issues are commonly resolved in a rushed and haphazard way; usually with band-aid solutions and/or without knowing the root cause.
- IT infrastructure is managed like they're in the 90s dot com era; build it now, get it working asap, and never look at it again - Out of fear it may stop working and no one will be able to fix it.
- Constant distrust from management; especially if you are a remote worker - Leading to micromanagement and continuous, fine grained, time tracking.
- A lot of self entitlement and battle of egos between IT "professionals".
