What don't you like about working at Complete Production Services?

"When NYSE became public, they forced all employees who were supporting AMEX projects at the time to become AMEX employees. This allowed them to get rid of people and not give them stock options as opposed to the employees who were supporting NYSE projects had to be given stock shares. I worked for this company for 7 years and my applications and projects are still running in production, but they chose to forget the accomplishments because I just started supporting AMEX applications even though I was still an employees of the same company."

What suggestions do you have for management?

"I'd reward loyalty of people who spent 365 days a year on 24/7 application support and sleeping with beepers and cell phone. I'd recommend keeping the dedicated people who often worked from 8AM to Midnight trying to squeeze in as much production testing before going live. I'd recommend rewarding people who came in on many weekends through out the year to perform disaster/recovery tests, performance tests, and capacity tests instead of spending the time with their families. I'd recommend rewarding the few people who achieved and actually delivered the exceptional perfect 10 out of 10 scored projects instead of eliminating them to save money on stock shares."
