Total joke - Product Manager Western Union Employee Review

Product Management here is a fancy term for project management. Worse, task management. People from the top down have no vision or point of view of their own and are merely executing someone else’s demands 24/7. Because of lack of vision, escalations are frequent and misinterpretations aplenty. People work ridiculous hours, joining calls with India as early as 8 and not hanging up for the day until midnight. Talent is subpar. It takes 20 people on a call to get a status because no one understands how to use a dashboard. Engineers are mostly in India and super junior, and need to be spoonfed what to do. The few design and product stars that have brought vision and analytical acumen to the company were never rewarded by the inept leadership and are on their way out. It makes me angry to think how much time I’ve wasted at this company, for a fraction of the pay of a tech company. If you interview here, I hope you probe on vision and impact, and ask how leadership measures its own performance.
