VISR Dynamics Reviews

What used to be a growing and innovative company has stagnated into a badly ran vanity project, ran on the whims of an increasingly unstable founder. With abysmal stakeholder communication towards the PMs and development team, and a deeply incorrect understanding of Agile methodology being enforced, talented project managers are not given the authority to manage their teams correctly, and C-suite advice is not listened to. There are three core problems which are faced by every member of staff every day: • No meeting or decision is allowed without the founder present. • Objectives or deadlines may have changed without warning, but nobody will be told unless the founder is asked directly. • The founder will be too busy to talk to, and will inevitably not show up for any planned meeting. This method of low-responsibility micromanagement and information gatekeeping forces employees to spend half of their day and energy personally seeking the founder out for guidance instead of doing their job. It seems almost perfectly formulated to stroke the founders ego and make him feel wanted/needed, whilst causing anxiety and reducing productivity in the rest of the staff.

Communication between departments is lacking. Company wide meetings frequently arranged at the last minute and often cancelled.
