Just another management bloated sinking.....

Pros

Government linked, easy to secure government projects.

Cons

Very bad hierarchical management system, consisting of cronies and friends, most with near zero knowledge in running a commercial company. Project managers with zero IT experience are adding to the chaos. Projects badly designed and run, that's why they never get completed, despite management forcing everyone to work longer hours. They think more headcount will finish the project quicker like in a construction company! They once had like 50 staff employed just for UAT when there was actually nothing much ready to be tested!

Horrible management and work culture

Anonymous employee

Pros

Relaxed easy life; Managers have no direction and eventually neither do you. KPIs are assigned without strategy, direction or sanity-check, so are completely useless for any purpose other than going through the motions.If you enjoy 11 months of headless-chicken relaxing time and 1 month of panicked finger-pointer at appraisal time, this company is for you.

Cons

Horrible, toxic, leadership. Managers (managers, directors, vp's and above) do not empower, lead, or even delegate properly. They assign jobs then tai-chi away any sort of responsibility. If things go well, they take credit; if things go badly they blame the poor slob that they never supported. The new CEO is trying to change things, but is facing a horribly non-productive entrenched culture kept in place by an even more horribly non-productive entrenched layer of management. CrimsonLogic has an alarming combination of many long-timers (5-15+ yrs service) and very high attrition rate for the newcomers. You find yourself under a horrible toxic leader, look for a way out, then realize other leaders are no better, so ultimately you have no choice but to leave.
