"Stock Options" are a joke (vest after 5 years, only get appreciation rights).

They've been improving in processes, but expect some new hurdle to jump through every couple of months to get your work done. It sucks, but some do actually work.

Vet your TLs more consistently. I feel like a commodity to some team leaders and a valuable asset to others. Work on improving morale and retention. Allow people to move teams easier. Stop wasting people's time with hurdles, because not everything can be captured in a metric.
