Abusive micromanagement, bad design decisions
Would be cool tech if it was done right Nice office near Govt Center T
Obvious brokenness in hw/sw design Relentless hostility & threats from management Too many people just not competent, including management Impossible to plan work when management hires people into a team with no warning until the day before they start, and they have the wrong skills.
Need team structure and autonomy for teams, instead of micromanagement. Need people with expertise spanning the hardware/software boundary, and the chip/system boundary. Get better quickly, or you won't have a product.
