- Too many managers.
- Some teams are treated more favorably than others.
- You'll only advance up the competency ladder (how you get your pay rises) if your face fits.
- The competency ladder is not a measure of how well you are able to do your job but rather, how well you are able to detail how great you are on paper.
- Terrible systems.
- Employees constantly have to record everything that they are doing - this is a huge waste of time.
- Employees are constantly threatened with being placed on performance plans. Not completing your competency ladder? Performance plan for you. Been off on long term sick due to serious illness? Performance plan for you. Been to the toilet one too many times? Performance plan for you too!
- Operational excellence is a joke and is again, a massive waste of time.
- Managers don't actually know what their team does. Staff members would have far more respect for management if they understood the work undertaken by the team and were able to pull their sleeves up and get their hands dirty now and again when required.
