The management is remarkably innovative: even when the business is in the ditch they still find innovative ways to steer the bonuses to themselves.

The management doesn't have a clue what's going on. Whilst some of you say that you're overrun with an endless deluge of work. Me and my colleagues have hardly done anything all summer. I'm not convinced there is a lot of work as I'm pretty sure it's caused by chaotic systems and processes which generate a disproportionate amount of bureaucracy and manual effort compared to the result achieved. But because of the way the company is setup in silos with most staff locked into single accounts, there is no way to balance the work out. The spare capacity could have been used to innovate endless internal improvements - but what's actually happened is they've bored one set of people into leaving or just giving up and waiting to be let go. Whilst burning out the rest who then either leave, go sick, or start a work to rule campaign and things just get slower and slower.
Please do not say that we have innovated lots of things - multiple time entry systems, multiple erp's, platform dxc, platform x, oasis, desert etc
Innovation is kryptonite to management and they will literally hate your guts for even discussing. The culture is to maintain the status core and continue to ask employees to do even more with less.
Desperately needs younger innovative management. Uk full of old ex-army chums all on the corporate gravy train.
