Pros

I work in the IT Team so there are no pros here.

Cons

What should have been an exciting opportunity to use IT to drive the business forward and really make a difference has been wasted by the HoD employ only friends rule. Decisions seem to based on ego rather than benefit. Real culture change and not for the better. more fear that old employees will be driven out.

It is disappointing to receive this review. All I can say is what I had posted once before in recent weeks specific to the IT team. There is a clear business plan to evolve the IT team as the technology needs of the business are changing and increasing. It is exactly that, the changes in team approach and hiring additional people are driven by the business need for continuous improvement; it isn’t to do with personalities as this reviewer feels. I can only encourage the reviewer to come forward to get their issues on the table and work through them in order to move forward.
