what the f,,k does IT have to do with anything ... how can a company run its business w/o IT ? its barebones now ... how about making the frontline who can't do their jobs and keep playin second fiddle to coke more accountable ? Did u ever wonder why it's RED in every freaking restaurant .. that's cuz these ppl s--- ! they just cant keep up and who's the blame ? the fkng strategy folks who have no fkng clue what's going on .. there's no clarity on what these fkng guys are supposed to champion .. goes all the way back up - IKN - What do you really want to sell IKN ? FYY or GFY? Pick ONE !

Well when the IT leader was giving marching orders to offshore/outsource much of the labor 5 years ago and the few qualified folks are having to cover both offshore inexperience and onshore demand plus face to the business , what do you expect ? As a service just means that (as a service ) we are going to insert another layer of complexity/incompetence and get paid. It’s the “blame” layer. Quality IT takes experienced staff with a clear vision and strategy. The culture was fine with OS/2 until 2008 so that should tell you something.

I’ve seen IT departments cut to the bone at other companies. Then the infrastructure group is overwhelmed and programmers are moved into server admin roles in which they are not trained in.

Customer service degrades, customers complain, resulting in more cuts. It is a downwards spiral.

Cleaned out how? Depending how old you are or how long you're there? There's enough people in IT just not even distribution of work.

It was cleaned out last week. What more do you want?
