Charge customer is quote 5 man per day.
But only hire 2.
1 quit. Left only 1 to do everything.

Management reasoning is... Requiment phase have 5 engineers also they have nothing to do.
Testing phase they say don't need full resources. Delivery just 1 person.

So end up cut cost hire 2 as standby. When 1 quit no replacement. So end up 1 person literally do everything. From the start to the end. No support.

Then tell management critical phase the development phase...
Their excuse can't find candidate or no one coming for interview..

You hire people way before the critical phase. Please. Need learning curve. Time etc... Training.
Management style is all about saving money. That's all.

When can't deliver, problems, complain. Then it's the engineers fault.
Management need to face the customer first hand then they are accountable.

Otherwise they just sit in their throne office room and manage by updates and cut cost only.
