Hyland reviews

It is high school, a soap opera, and mafia all-in-one. You're either with the "in" crowd, or you're meat. Some "managers" can't handle their own egos or emotions, and will punish differing opinions that they deem to be not in line with "the team/family" (read: "Different than what they want to hear.") Or better yet, those whom have employees with superior technical and/or math abilities who feel threatened by a subordinate who presents a proven solution which they lack the ability/education comprehend. (It works, but I don't "get it," so it must be bad!) After a failed IPO, they sold out to a venture company for a quick buck; but are now no longer in control of their own future. IE: if their return isn't high enough, they could be flipped and dismantled by a big corporation. They are right in saying that healthcare is the future... Unfortunately, Panasonic, Sony, GE, and a multitude of large multi-national companies agree. However, they outgun Hyland on software design, and actually have their own hardware developments; Hyland has a diner. As previously mentioned, if you're one of the "old guard" managers, you can do what you like with impunity. Seniority is what counts, and below fifteen years of emplyment, being LIKED by seniority is what counts.

The company may be more internally-focused and inward-looking than you might hope, but most organizations greatest strengths wind up being their greatest weaknesses (as they rely upon those strengths as solutions for most problems). So nobody's perfect and the long-running success of the company and its loyal employees means a lot more management built from the inside, so with that you're going to naturally incur some challenges and Hyland does struggle a bit there.
