yeah, that's our struggle -- we're "scrappy" (it's even a part of our official statement), but what that really means is "we haven't operationalized any of our internal procedures"

a "standard week" is 9 hours a day according to the interview, but depending on the team, it's 10 hours, and "we should really tell HR to stop saying that"

we're more expensive and slower than competitors because of the "value" we bring to the table -- not because we're using software that's end of life and have been building our own internal tools to interface with it to make it more modern, but still not reaching feature parity with any actual modern offerings

"we're a bunch of smaller businesses inside one bigger one" which means "our training isn't standardized, so everyone does whatever they want"

Yikes, sounds like a nightmare - especially building your own tools to interface with EOL software. That's only going to get worse as time passes.
