I gave 15 years to this company and for what? - Solution Architect SITA Employee Review

The quality of managers on AMS project has ALWAYS been shocking - nepotism is rife. One minute your the secretary at the door the next your a project manager! Architectural & design patterns are just buzz words, they think they are using Scrum or Scalable Scrum but it may as well be a ruby Scrum, for how well they use it. I have never seen a company that spends so much on external training, nobody can think for themselves - dissect a good YouTube video and POC a project and save £10K A lot of extremly good staff have left since Covis and gone contracting, we estimated that they took around 100 years of experience out the door - that can never be replaced in an average employee's lifetime. The Tech-Stack is shockingly behind modern standards....forget about AI, Big Data, Machine Learning, anything modern (newer than 10 years) etc. The testing standards are a joke, Unit Tests\Integration\Automation\CI CD are just bean counters and projects have come so close to failing in the past and nearly making it past UAT and into Production.
