So they hire cheap outsource to do the work and let the perm manager manage.

Outsource do all the work. No conversion. No promotion. Increment is standard 3% already allocated on budget before hiring. Do more bonus same
Do less also same.

People stay 1 to 2 years quit.
Project recycled to a new batch of outsource.
Perm M1 promoted to M2.
Reorg again, M2 pulled to another division by boss. Promoted to M3.

Project recycled again under new boss.
The same circle continue. No senior management retire or quit.
But keep going up higher.
Totally agree with you on the bosses. They only promote those they like.

My time there I was the one with a niche skill and certificate there. I even came up with a lot of recommendations to meet the customers' requirements. I was there to pacify the customer and take all the bullets when things go awry.

But no, the management rather promotes the engineers that make the most noises pointing fingers when it is obvious the planning and design went wrong.

When I tendered my resignation, the managers panicked and hoped I would stay and help them with the implementation of a new solution and kick-start a project. I really want to show them the finger but I see no point in wasting my own efforts. My point is simple, they could have shown more appreciation during my time there and not waited till I tendered.
