My division at Thomson Reuters used to be a great place to work. Working on exciting technologies and being surrounded by really talented people made working at Thomson fun and motivating. The middle management worked great with their employees, creating a team and product that anyone could be proud of.
Unfortunately the new CTO in our division has "came in like a wrecking ball", demolishing in months what took years for middle management to build. Some of his ideas are good but his entire implementation is damaging the company and morale more than anyone in "upstairs" has begun to realize. I have watched week after week as some of our best people have jumped ship. Now the entire management chain between me and the CTO has left the company and most of our best people who understood the product are gone. CTO thinks that he can just outsource the problem away because he "can get two outsourced employees for the cost of one in the USA".
