Thread regarding Raymond James Financial Inc. layoffs

Stuck in the past

Why do people on top believe that doing things the same way they have been done for decades is the way to go for RJF?

I understand that the old slow and steady approach ensured the stability of the company, but to keep it that way, things have to change. We have so many people who have been with the company for far too long who keep dictating technology decisions in a way that is far too conservative.

We need to evolve from the conservative approach of yesteryear and start to innovate or we'll end up at the end of the line while every other company passes us by.

We are already feeling the effects of being stuck in the past when it comes to technology through current layoffs. We need to do something before it becomes even worse.

Personally I don't think it is a "Stuck in the Past" notion. The problems started when you quit caring about your workers. Being innovative cannot happen when you have people that are so overworked due to so much staff leaving and so many new people that aren't retained, you are in constant training mode, it is all that can be done to "KTLO".
