We had our all-employee meeting today. For a corporate rah-rah session, it wasn't too bad. Our CEO (who has the coolest Swiss accent) stood up and told us in detail what Katrina/Rita/Wilma has done to the bottom line, and then he and the other execs took Q&A.When the first question was "our computer application support was outsourced and is now terrible, what are we going to do about it?" and the whole room bursts into applause - you knew you weren't listening to a bunch of butt kissers...
I have to give props to the Information chief - he stood up and said that it wasn't terrible, it was a "terrible and horrible" experience and that we had learned our lesson.
Maj,
ReplyDeleteYou must work with a great mgmt team. Simon's experience is unfortunately the same as mine when I was a corporate worker, with exceptions of course.
Whoa. Cool.
ReplyDeleteWhere I work, I am the IT department, so I hope they never outsource it. :)
