Management needs to drink their own cool aid. They don't know a thing about managing projects. They don't know how to organize effectively. They over work the good employees and let others who are worthless hang around and do nothing. Why not replace them to create effective teams rather than resentment.
They keep building more and more processes into their IT GROUP which add no value and then ask why is it taking so long.
EPMO is established but you would not know it.
