There are hardworking people at WorkWave. Unfortunately, management is very poor. Management does not take the advice of employees seriously, pushes for quick features, and wants to micromanage. WorkWave was acquired by a global company and is pushing for aggressive road maps with short deadlines.
This is a tech company, but it is not run as a tech company. It is run by business and sales/marketing people that do not know how to maintain and grow their software company properly. They need better technical management, and to better update and maintain their tech stack.
- Hiring a lot of international cheap labor to support their software
- Having hiring and retention issues. Not sure why they are firing people.
- Starting to incorporate more micromanagement practices
- No career growth or proper training for engineers
- Management does not plan for future features properly, and priority changes frequently. (Priority changes so frequently, you question management and your motivation to complete these goals...)
- Engineers are not given clear vision of desired features to develop
- Software documentation is minimal, if any at all
