Re: genuine advice needed
Completely agreed with Solar .. I think employers do not just invest in someone out of the blue and without considering their own returns on Investment. If they are doing all this to support your husband , it means they have a plan for him ..
I think there is a lack of communication between the manager and your husband .. perhaps your husband needs to talk to them a bit more openly to know the company’s longer term plans and how they see him growing in the firm.
As far as technical expertise is concerned , why dont you ask hubby to do a bit more research in the market , you guys can do a little exercise , contact an IT recruitment agency in your area and get them to take a look at his CV and the type of opportunities that he might get … then compare those opps with what his actual role is , once you know in clear terms what expectations to have , it will help your husband ask the right questions when he speaks to his manager …
all the best though , Solar has made some very very strong points , I hope it all helps clear out the situation for you and your husband
I was hired by second largest software company in the world. For six months I had nothing to do so they told me to go and take any training I wanted I did and they paid for it all. All that training came very handy when finally after 6 months they formed the team they planned to and rest is history.
i told hubby that the company wont be spending money if they are not expecting anything in return and also as the main boss has said they will be having big IT team than they will. Wait and see and learn. at the moment hubby is too much busy in courses he is undertaking so he plans not to say anything till june but plans to stay will end of the year at least.
main thing is hubby doesn’t want to make wrong decisions as he has already completed accounting studies than didnt continue in that field.
