Pros

Benefits, salary, areas of growth, and work from home.

Cons

There was toxic management and gaslighting all the time.

There was an AI push, and the unmanaged code is about to explode. It was a top-down approach with a blaming culture, and you have no weekends.

Advice to Management

Protect your team instead of stressing them. Your success is connected to your team's success.
