Outform reviews

There have been big changes in the business. It has been sold by the founder to investors and merged with a UK competitor. This has created a toxic culture within some teams as some people try to protect their positions. After the buy-out and merger I experienced a very clandestine approach to projects. I the was asked to cc' my manager on every email I sent. I was dropped into projects mid way through and at the last minute, without any briefing. I was asked to take ownership of projects that were failing and where bad decisions had been made. When I corrected the projects I was asked by Account Directors why these decisions had been made. I pointed out that these decisions had been made prior to me joining the team and I was then taken off the project by my line manager. I think it can be a good place to work but that depends on the team so watch your back.

Long hours, project timelines are compressed
