I recently moved to a director with the 20:1 changes. My boss (director) reports to our SVP.
My boss has implmented a new update meeting for all of their employess to "get updates" and "provide support" when we need them to chase someone or something down.
The meeting agenda:
What we accomplished this week
What roadblocks we ran into
What we plan to accomplish in the next 7 days
Imagine having the time to meet with 20 people weekly to micromanage them.
Either you or your boss is gone, first week of August.
"I have Teams on my phone"
Thats not the flex you think it is
Imagine having to actually be accountable for your job
@a2 I have Teams on my phone
Dell as a company is no longer, the company is a shell of itself. The flattening of the organization, ehhh.. They should have cut the overage on staff before the EMC deal is finalized. EMC was so overloaded on staff its ridiculous!
They waste crazy amounts of money on tools that do not work, do not communicate with other tools, put out training that is WORTHLESS and expect you to become experts on them. How a company got so big being run so poorly and so inefficiently is beyond me.
You have directors that pick and choose when they are in the office, although EVERYONE within the distance range is REQUIRED in office 5 days a week, Senior directors use unapproved, potentially security risk based communication platforms that corporate cannot see.
@a2 (OP) - haven't had that happen yet… to my knowledge
Your manager watching you on Teams to see how many minutes you have been away from your desk is micromanaging.
