Managers make sure none of their team members are successful in making an internal move. Only those who have been in the organization for a long time can do it. Once an internal move attempt fails, that's when the manager starts retaliation, eventually using a PIP. PIPs are misused and unjustified.

Managers are busy developing personal visibility, which is of barely any use to the team. They are pure productivity killers.

Don't join if you see PSET in the requirement. PDMS (the product division) is better.

It used to be a good place, but the company is missing on its core values with bulk hiring and inexperienced, immature managers being hired.

PIP cannot be a sole manager decision. There should be some senior technical person involved, especially from some other team, who can validate if the person is really an underperformer.

Skip-level meetings for all managers should not be optional, no matter how favored this manager is by anyone in upper management.
