Express Scripts reviews about "manager"

After many years with company and numerous promotions, one manager was responsible for my future. Once I made a complaint about this person's behavior to HR, my fate was sealed. Felt unprotected by HR.

Most if not all the teams utilize outdated hardware and software, with extremely slow turnaround time on fixing issues, updating software, deprecating EOL hardware/software, and overall lacking in drive to make things better. Management would rather pay for many outsourced unqualified contractors to act as technical support 24/7 than hire software engineers to develop solutions to their problems. Similarly, management would rather maintain legacy code from the early 2000's than to replace those projects with modern programming languages, frameworks, tools, and technologies. I also personally had a bad manager, who kept pushing for technologies that I believed should have been a much lower priority for us to move forward with compared to the exponentially rising technical debt that we were accruing. This manager also disrespected a coworker who was dealing with an immediate family member that was dying, telling them to prioritize work over their terminally ill relative.

There were times that I would not have anything to do, but I learned to use the free time to develop skills and learn the "why" behind what we do for clients.

Poor pay, and small bonuses

Many overpaid managers have no clue what they're doing and should have never been in their role.

The new manager was a micromanager

Late hours would occur often

- Since everyone is work from home, you don't really get to know your team as well.
