Advice to Senior Management

Stop announce just how many new clients and profits the company made in the year at the same time low salary growths are coming.
Work harder to keep valuable members on the teams working for the company rather than disappoint them with low salary reviews.

Pros

Wide range of open source technologies used in the product, there is a good mix of nationalities and gender.

Cons

Salary and compensation, the company pays as little as they can get away with. They work you to the bone with little or no thanks, compensation. Too many 'Archtiects'/(Dinosaurs)/'Senior Engineers' who are in my opinion, surplus to requirements and are only trying to justify their own jobs. Questionable recruitment also. Experienced multi database DBA urgently needed.

Advice to Senior Management

Stop people leaving the company by compensating them fairly.
