Interesting mission overshadowed by toxic culture and shortcuts
Interesting mission overshadowed by toxic culture and shortcuts
Interesting mission and motivation to solve real problems.
Sheltering of toxic engineers. Shouting matches and one-upmanship are terrible for getting quality work done. The C-suite is happy to cut corners in any way, which has led to accidents and injury. Constant excuses are made to defend deficits in engineering or company culture: "We'll clean up when we get a woman in the company."
Get off Twitter and focus on building a real company. Invest the time into the engineers and product.
