2 Days Free Lunch Decent Pay

Cons

Horrible, horrible tech leadership/management.

All the good leaders have already left the company, and only toxic ones are remaining.

These managers or leaders blame engineers for their own failures because they have to save their jobs. Frequent layoffs, firing of employees, toxic work culture.

I don't know if a single employee (except people leaders) looked happy to me. This company used to be one of the best places to work, but now it's just the opposite.

Advice to Management

A company grows with a strong culture and good leaders, but you are letting go of good engineers to save toxic people leaders. Wake up before it's too late.
