The bank sees tech as an afterthought and is unwilling to invest into resources, systems and solutions. The execs have neglected the IT to the point that we are falling behind our competition.
Also, the leadership keeps hiring contractors and consultants - which is detrimental as it relates to the quality of the work as they do not have as much ownership as employees.
Also, layoffs - they continue and we had some about four months ago. I've been hearing rumors that they will cut in IT again - i would not be surprised.
