Concerns:
- Should the parent company have understood the team dynamic before acquisistion/project assignment?
- Does this signify an inadvertant rebranding of our company (skewed towards "older" projects)?
- Are our developers simply being childish and unprofessional?
Suggestions:
- Acquire more information (user stories, etc)
- Allow team members to move on to projects that they actually enjoy and acquire those that will do the job
- Highlight the opportunities for growth (simplified UX, etc)
- Highlight similarites to previous work
- Emphasize inter-generational team relations (icebreaker w/ new leader)
- Utilize conferences as opportunities for growth and emphasize getting paid to learn
