Employee morale is at rock bottom. The resulting incompetence is tolerated. Many of these people are political appointees from this and prior administrations. Good employees are being demoralized. The cuts and movement of personnel due to bumping has many people in positions they are unable or unqualified to perform.
Individuals make a difference if they try.
Management does not exert paramount influence on most decisions. Workers must press their points. Lack of written direction on what our true goals and directions are. Too many managers and too many layers of management. The major layoffs of staff in the past three years touched very few managers.
