Hello everyone:
I am battling with being hired as a high-level architect with nothing to do. Although the place is in dire need of my skillset.
I have a boss who refuses to stay out of my projects. He refuses to let me manage my teams. When I started my position he stated how much he needed me. Now that I am here, he wants to prove that he can out-think, out-do, out-design me in every way.
I am tired of starting a project that becomes his. We are not following any processes at all. Everything is fly-by-night! I feels like I am in trailer management rather than IT. The kill of all is, this company keeps screaming we need to do things based upon Sarbanes-Oxley’s theory, but we can’t do the simple things right. We are in competition with each business unit rather than performing as a team. I can’t get a word in and I am constantly battling with working with unprofessional, uneducated, uncivilized people. The positive side to the madness is, I love the CEO of the company. He is booming in business and knows how to get things off on the right track. HR is working hard by setting new standards, but the people with credentials are working for the one’s without them. It feels like there are a lot of Jonah’s on board of this ship, and the sad thing is, they are blocking the real talent from getting the job done.
I really would hate to see us fail due to this ignorance.
Any comments?
