People are moaning and groaning about management being blind yada yada…..
It’s not like they are blind, its more like its by design and do not care.
Yes there’s been a paradigm shift to where there’s micromanaging, sporadic shifts in decisions, what was important is thrown by the wayside and what was not important is now the most critical thing ever, do more with less in record time while we bump up the deadline to be sooner etc…
Its all designed to confuse, frustrate, cause anxiety and run people off.
The reason has already been mentioned time and time again.
Its all to run people off. Tenured, new, top performers, low performers, etc… it does not matter where you fit, that’s not the point. The point is to trim the numbers even lower by “attrition” without having to pay the severance. THIS is the goal. Citi is in such a bad shape that they can’t afford pay the severance, so run them off via other means.
