    A very bad career move
    The good thingshighly qualified employees who are often doubted, discouraged, and pushed off the cliff by a constant demotivating effort from their management
    The challengesManagement has no direction or vision, Lacks humility. The company is still living in the past of Tech despite being a technology solutions provider. The toxic culture between teams and the trust simply does not exist. the company is a revolving door with one of the highest employee turnover rate I had ever seen

    Great start for new graduates. One shot interview or lack off when they desperately low resources due to high staff turnarounds.
    The good thingsThe experience in earning varieties of skills outside of scope
    The challengesYou be dealing with escalations, and trying to meet ridiculous SLA and short notices. Most process are self learnt, lack of training guides, total mess.

    Management only interested in one thing. How much they can squeeze out of you and the client.
    The good thingsNice team culture, that’s about it.
    The challengesThe clients they have. No respect on client sites. All your seen as is a work horse.

    I enjoyed my time at Harbour IT I learnt so much from my colleagues.
    The good thingsThe people that work there are all highly skilled and a joy to work with. They are friendly and always willing to help.
    The challengesAs usual with IT the work life balance is hard to find and getting the quality of staff required is always difficult so the staff can feel overwhelmed at times. There is also a need to get the processes right but there was great improvement over my tenure
