The lack of leadership in our department leaves everyone wondering how to do their jobs. Most of us wonder if we will lose our jobs due to a lack of performance on the part of our managers. We all know what roles down hill and unfortunately our department sits at the bottom of the hill. Our department has been completely turned upside down as of late and we are suffering. A team is only as good as their captain (manager) and our captains are lacking. Never in my life have I worked in an environment where management rolls their eyes and huffs at you because you have a questions about the new process & new software program that all took effect on the same day! You cannot go to management about the problems because they are the problems. You cannot go above them because you have to worry about the consequences. You cannot go to HR for the same reason. Disorganized chaos is what we go into every day.

I don't want to draw this out, so I will try to summarize - Politics - This is pretty much the biggest reason I left. Executives are pampered and are allowed to circumvent policies as they please. The current CIO has even admitted to "going with the flow" and enabling this behavior. No one here is wanting a real change to this corporate culture, and the people who do, do not have the power to do anything about it. - Misuse of employee talent/expertise - Let's call it how it is. Management are the ones making the decisions around here, when it comes to IT infrastructure. They hire experts and tell them what to do, instead of the other way around. Decisions are made on personal preferences and beliefs, and are usually based on ignorance. Do they even ask us? Sometimes, does it affect their decisions? No! - Nickel-and-Diming - Yes you read that correctly. A billion dollar company Nickel-and-Diming on the most ridiculous things. It's disheartening when you get told you cannot spend $100 a month on a team lunch, yet spend thousands upon thousands on things that do not have any value. - The need of having everyone work from the office. If you are in the I.T. field. You understand that we as a team can work remotely. Not at Sheridan, they want to make sure you fill that seat. - Human Resources has way too much power. I have never heard of an HR department telling managers what they should do with their employees, (e.g. working remotely). I did not enjoy working at Sheridan, and it seems to be a trend as people are leaving in droves for new opportunities.
