The senior management is either not concerned, or not bothered about the way the IT department is being run by the CIO. No proper guidance nor direction, blame game for every little thing, verbal and written warnings flung for everything. People are moved from roles, upwards, downwards, laterally within the blink of an eye. Nepotism and brown nosing prevails so much that complaints to HR are disregarded. Those who don't agree with the CIO are either out of the door or badly treated while those who do constantly are rewarded. Scores of people have left, some who had been with the company for many years, some who had tremendous skill and experience. Those remaining are scared for their job and scared to say anything. Do yourself a favor - stay away.

If you are not on the IT executive team, then you will be singled out and pushed out of the company. All her lies and manipulation of processes are known to HR but lame HR is scared to take any actions. Every now and then GSF associates are stating the facts through the associate survey and Glass door. Executive management doesn’t care about associates and manages her team with fear, apathy, deception and does not trust them. Security in GSF can be compromised so easily but she keeps giving wrong examples to management to prove herself correct. Most of the associates are stressed out and being questioned if they are not her team. The culture at GSF has drastically changed ever since the new management has taken over the IT department. She limits an employee's ability to perform to their level best and tries to take over every meeting. In addition, a "one size fits all" management style is followed. The job of a good leader is to make sure that a team is properly aligned on its mission, and has the resources it needs to achieve that mission, nothing of that sort is appreciated here at GSF. The leader doesn't lead by example and is only constantly focused on blame, rather than solutions and support, it is all about a sense of entitlement rather than a sense of duty.
