Appalling management short sighted idiocy. Prepare to have your proactive and useful inputs rapidly extinguished and hopes to steer things in a positive direction to be short lived. You will do what you are told, even if you are right and they are wrong. And they will come back and blame you later on.
Processes are horrendous, archaic and disjointed even in the simplest of ways. No one really knows what they are doing, how they should be doing it, if they are doing it correctly. No lessons learnt from past mistakes, no forward learning is logged and fed back to future work or processes, so the same resultant failures are made time and time again. Big attitude of blame culture, silo working, micromanagement. Lots of managers who chase project plans to target rather than deal with critical issues and focusing on quality output first. Prepare to be forced to complete tasks and projects multiple times incorrectly but quickly, as this is the way of the managerial direction, and throw a last minute fix in at the end which uses more resource than doing it properly in the first place.
Can be very clicky, if your face does not fit and you do not play the game, then you won't ever progress into more senior roles. The ones who tend to do well, seem to be the ones who blow hot air, with flashy metrics and targets and no real substance to themselves or their quality of actual real work.
Thankless work with expected extra hours for free. Ive seen grown men cry in their cars, bash up their desks from through the stress and pressure and general low morale.
