People here have plenty of ideas, but very few seem to survive the process. By the time something gets through all the approvals, there's barely anything left of the original idea.

Lol. Welcome to the world. As someone who had try making changes and documentation and numbers. Did everything text book, you will get overlooked. Now, If you drink the kool aid, and keep meetings on going with no resolution and talk good. You will get promoted. No changes will happen unless upper leadership came up with it, with your ideas that you get no credit for.
Feels like its not worth even proposing anything that would work because any thought just gets shut down. Feels like opinions of the experts dont matter and then the direction is decided by those who arent close to a project or outcome resulting in absolute turmoil.
@b6 agreed. So many ideas being tossed around, especially by leadership teams but when it comes to the actual execution there is not accountability or direction. Everyone keeps suggesting things but without reason for why it should be pursued.
Or just burn it to the ground when you find out they are letting you go.
@a8 No wonder this company is losing. What a bizzarre post for someone in a technology company. It's your job to stay up to date. It's on page 1 of the technology worker's career manual.
@a8 You are whining because you didn’t keep up on your skills and now you can’t find a job and somehow that is CDWs fault? I’m thinking we all might know why you were let go.
Why bother doing anything for the benefit of cruddy CDW? The bare minimum is too good for these a--clowns.
Theres a lot of ideas but the execution is lacking.
This was my experience and I could have written this myself. I was laid off in July…I was a designer. There was no going “above and beyond” just quantity over quality and being treated like someone on an assembly line at a factory. Absolutely I am struggling to find a new job because I was discouraged in any way from using any original thought whatsoever.
I knew I’d have to face the music of having essentially no progress in my skills after being employed there for 4+ years, and here I am trying to scramble and do that now.
What a terrible and soulless job for so many there, I’m sure not just in my position or field as well.
