Awful pandemic response

Pros

Some interesting projects and good clients, some nice people

Cons

The day the prime minister told employees to work from home if they can (in March), management did not react in time. The COO Sharon Daly actually said when asked that afternoon "well I'm coming in tomorrow!". Therefore, no employees took home any equipment and were not told until late that evening not to come in the next day. Steer continued it's poor handling of the pandemic from that day, with no regular team calls and no equipment sent to staff for months. I know some employees who worked until September without a mouse! Many staff were totally isolated and not spoken to for days at a time. Pay was cut to 80% but hours were kept the same. Obviously because of this morale was low and productivity was low so eventually redundancies were made. Steer failed to protect people's jobs because of mismanagement.
