  • Measly to none salary increases.
  • Unreasonable layoffs, even from highly profitable teams, at a clear cost of quality and employee well-being.

Advice to Management

Please resign with a clear public message: "I'm incompetent to lead in this company." That's the most honorable thing you can do.
