Great people, but backstabbing
Great people, but backstabbing
Great people around. The best I've ever met!
Super ambitious goals.
Great benefits.
WFH flexibility.
Performance review. It works this way:
- Leadership escalates project X.
- You clearly don't see any impact of X, but have to disagree and commit.
- You give the project to an engineer from your team (even if they disagree).
- The engineer executes the project.
- PSC comes, and the engineer does not receive credit for X because, guess what, no impact.
And this loop happens again and again. You build a special skill on how to dodge from these crappy, non-impactful projects.
Stop escalating useless things left and right because they were sold to you in the elevator. Try to spend some time to understand:
a) what business goal you have, b) how you want to achieve it, c) why you think you achieve it by X, Y, or Z.
