| Jan 12, 2014 at 23:35 | comment | added | jmort253 | Hello, this is looking more like something that belongs on a discussion forum. To take this off-hold and allow more answers, we'd need to edit this to avoid addressing specific users. Posts on Workplace SE should be in Q&A format with a question on the top and answers posted below. NewBoss, once you merge your accounts, you should be able to participate in the process much easier, make the edits, and then we can reopen. Good luck! | |

| Jan 9, 2014 at 14:20 | comment | added | maple_shaft | From a person who has been both a leader and a team member, I will say that when bright technical people are near revolt and overly cynical, then 99% of the time it is because poor senior leadership doesn't see a train coming and the team feels threatened and powerless by this. Most of the time they really have the best intentions and they almost always indeed have pointed out a critical shortsightedness in executive decisions. The fact that they have been absolutely been correct in the past with cynical predictions should be an enormous warning sign to you and senior management. | |

| Jan 8, 2014 at 21:28 | comment | added | the_reluctant_tester | Three questions to understand your question further ...1.Are you uncomfortable that they bring (to you) a lot of not so high priority or irrelevant issues ? 2. Issues are valid but their method of communicating/highlighting those issues is vigorous and over the top , then, are you uncomfortable that you are put under unnecessary and avoidable scrutiny due to their communication methods ? 3. Combination of both ? | |
| Jan 8, 2014 at 21:02 | comment | added | user10911 | That first paragraph seems a bit melodramatic and uses creative expressions for the sake of being entertaining to read. Can you please edit it to tell us what actually happened? | |

Removed a bit of ranting; Worked on the title to make it more fitting. Reworked on some statements for better reading.
