The company just hired an IT leader from a local large financial institution which has a very damaged work place reputation. Micro management, lack of concern for employee’s, no empathy, lack of insurance experience. The Sr. IT level managers are fighting among each other and in the end the non-management IT person is ignored, just considered replaceable. The tension is very evident with the current turn-over in the mid to high teens. Unfortunately, H.R. has never been given the authority to make a difference, they’re mainly there to administer programs and when it’s time to take a hard stand, they’re scurrying out of the room looking for safety.
