Grading for engineer tasks in Canvas (East GNT)

Just informed on an East market call that engineers will now be graded based on the time it takes to get tasks completed in Canvas…. Most of the delays are out of our hands with the tool not working 1/2 the time or vendors not getting their related tasks completed…. The people making these decisions have NO concept of what it takes to keep a network running and just want to stare at dashboards… I’m assuming this will now be used against us for reviews and future RIFs

Looking at the job openings lately, most of these tasks will unfortunately be completed by employees in South Asia sometime in the near future. Best of luck.

When you fill engineering management positions with people from the marketing department you get clueless fools who think that all tasks are equal (taking a pi-s vs building a tower), all that matters is some kindergarten looking dashboard has all happy faces on it.
