Teams add one more interview every quarter, yet quality of hires does not improve. Candidates drop out from fatigue. The same pattern appears across squads: process keeps expanding while accountability gets diluted, so the people doing execution absorb the chaos. I compared this with similar services and expected at least baseline consistency, but the same failure mode keeps recurring here. At this point the issue feels structural, because individual fixes keep expiring while the root workflow remains unchanged. A realistic fix would be one clear owner, one visible status timeline, and fewer forced restarts of the same information.

People who present often are rated higher than people who quietly solve hard problems. The signal is activity, not impact. This has moved from a one-off annoyance to a predictable operating pattern, and everyone knows it but nobody owns the correction. I tested workarounds that should have reduced impact in the short term, but they only moved the friction to a different part of the flow. The cost is not just inconvenience; it affects planning quality, emotional bandwidth, and confidence in future interactions. This would improve quickly with a simpler path: preserve context, expose accountability, and publish concrete service expectations.

Projects look perfect in decks, then stall in delivery because ownership is split across too many people. In my team this does not happen once in a while, it happens in almost every planning cycle and people quietly adapt around it instead of fixing it. I escalated through the documented channel with evidence and timestamps, yet each handoff restarted the process instead of moving it forward. Over weeks this compounds into avoidable overhead, especially for people with fixed schedules and little room for administrative delays. The platform does not need a full redesign to improve this, it needs reliable basics that remain stable over time.

I team passano piu tempo a sincronizzare tool che a risolvere problemi reali.

The platform does not need a full redesign to improve this, it needs reliable basics that remain stable over time. Il punto non e il singolo episodio, ma un difetto di processo ricorrente che si potrebbe ridurre con responsabilita chiare.
