* Workload can be excessive at times, with teams often under-resourced relative to project demands.
* Technical decision-making may be influenced heavily by contractor direction rather than independent engineering judgement.
* Limited structured training or clear career development pathways.
* Inconsistencies in compensation, with individuals in similar roles receiving significantly different salaries.
* Career progression can appear more reactive (e.g. through counteroffers) rather than based on sustained performance and loyalty.
* Bonus structures lack transparency and may not always align with individual contributions.
* Heavy reliance on a single key client creates potential business continuity risk.
* Offboarding experience could be improved, as support and engagement may decline once resignation is submitted.
Site teams are forced to approve everything even when they know it’s incorrect so leadership can say we keep the client happy.
