Re-org and culture

Cybersecurity Specialist
Current employee, more than 3 years

Pros
WFH, still kinda flexi to working hour.

Cons
Org is going through re-org and everything changes quickly. Very frustrating to do work as decision from top down is not dismantle quickly causing redundant work effort. Too many long meetings and disruptive to deliverables.

Advice to Management
Stop taking in uniform group retirees

I really wonder if you are so disgruntled, you are welcome to leave why stay so long?

GDS folks going to SVC for safe haven? Maybe because your turnover is so high, you have a lot of spare headcount.

If you don't recognize the mediocrity that is service group, then you must still be new, naive or delusional.

Also as an AR, if you have access to oneSpace, please take a look how many folks from GDS been coming over to SVC (Safe Haven) from all the “re-org”

AR need both GDS/SVC and GDS need SVC as agencies give Headcount.

While CE mentioned some stability but that didn’t run away of HC transfer de la.

Without SVC which is 50% of GVT, I think can forget about AR or GDS because we are the single biggest customers served by GDS or those SI.

Is ok to be trash in your eyes cos we cannot control how one thinks, but we are those trash that give you a job
