whistle-blowers have claimed.
Sources, who have asked to remain anonymous due to their employment within the council, claim there are “overpaid” workers whose roles could easily be slashed.“A lot of these managerial positions aren’t needed; we have way more managers in John Street than we need.Freedom of information data has revealed there is an average of one manager to around six employees throughout the council headquarters.
With thousands of staff working outside of the main corporate office bases still reporting to senior managers within the George Square facilities, it’s difficult to confirm the exact ratio of employees to bosses.
