Affirm

• Opportunity to lead and grow on teams handling non-legacy code and projects

• Excessive push for unrealistic deadlines with terribly underscoped projects.

• Five team members spread between multiple projects, with little to no members working on the same one. On top of that, many random asks, tasks, and questions.

• Legacy codebase is over-engineered, spaghetti, and breaking every other hour, making development a slog.

• Had no say in what the team wanted to work on when we were reorganized into maintaining and being a dumpster for legacy code and tools they no longer want to work on.

• No leadership, and management does not seem to care about burnout and disengagement until almost everyone is ready to coast or leave, dropping productivity.

• Benefits and days off are being cut or dwindling to that of any other company, and worse than some in some aspects, to decrease spending and increase stock value.

Dedicate more resources to make engineering life easier instead of pushing for only projects with monetary gain or legal obligation. No one wants to work on portions of code that guarantee and encourage burnout.
