“Self-Directed” improvement potential

Wide base of technology exposure

Recognizable addition to your resume

Highly political and aggressive undermining.

Managers are trained to prevent excessive contributions by individual contributors, making it impossible to be “indispensable” or add value much at all.

Their focus is on mindless execution, rather than contribution.

Non-technical managers openly lie to and gaslight their tech employees.

The corporate masks will erode your sense of self if you’re not careful.

Once onboarded, it’s nearly impossible to transition to anything new or a different line of business.

Must be a tenacious self-motivator to keep your sanity and career focus.

If the only thing that matters to you is your stock prices, your employees will only care about their paychecks. Humans need a sense of contribution to care about their work. Your workforce of “monkeys pushing buttons” is a downward spiral to oblivion. The charade will crumble, eventually.
