Lack of communication, prioritization, and disrespect

Fuse Integration Response
5yFuse works hard to address the challenges presented by our rapidly growing startup environment, dynamic rapid development mindset, and pressures of meeting deadlines for development with unclear or changing requirements. We realize this can be frustrating and over the past two years we have instituted several mechanisms to facilitate communications and better planning for our team. While adapting to a combined remote and in-lab work schedule we have established 3 separate working groups focused on Communications and Vision, Opportunities and Mentorship, and Wellness. All team members are encouraged to participate in these working groups which provide an opportunity to have a voice in shaping in how our team grows to adapt to greater numbers with additional processes. These are action oriented groups – getting processes and avenues of communication in place to facilitate mentorship, career opportunities, and increased communication across all levels and aspects of our team. We welcome feedback and as we look back at our first ten years we realize that change can be hard. The next decade of Fuse is exciting as we continue to charge forward with an Agile mindset, a focus on the user, and a rapid prototyping process that is putting our products and solutions into the hands of the fleet. We continue to sprint, but have matured many processes to ensure we are working as a team, paying attention to our team and working together.
