• Pay is one of the most competitive in the market.
• Decent upwards mobility.

Benefits are subpar, and time and resources for training are laughable. The company will nickel and dime its own employees.

The company will make life-altering decisions on a whim, without any concern or exception for special circumstances. This erodes trust and makes many in the company prepared to leave at any moment out of fear they will be next to be screwed over.

Every little project you work on will eventually require working in another team's codebase. However, every team is so overworked that they will do everything in their power to block you, creating an environment of excessive red tape and toxicity.

The consequence of the above is that there are several duplicate tech stacks in the company. Documentation is non-existent for even the most core of systems, making any and all work a demoralizing slog of wasted hours.

Average tenure is about 2.5 years, so there is a noticeable lack of institutional knowledge that hurts the company.

Go back to the way you used to be. Involve your employees in the decision-making, stop treating them as expendable, and give your teams enough resources and bandwidth to be able to respond to changing situations without all the bureaucracy.
