Very poor communication. The managers communicate with each other but don't pass the info on to us. So one manager will ask if something is done, when the other manager never told us that it needed to be done.

Our qa environment is a joke. It doesn't match our production environment at all.

Too much of our work relies on people outside of our team. So when we need them to review, approve, or contribute it takes forever because it doesn't matter to them.

The problem of poor communication is not solved by anyone. Still. Therefore, we have hundreds of systems to communicate, but they do not work effectively enough. In my company we use Slack (for communications) and Asana (for task management). These are good tools, but not universal.

Agreed. Nobody seems to be tackling the big picture here.

What we need is not more communication apps. What we need is one communication app that's better than anything out there. Something like the English of apps.
