Toxic culture and uncompetitive pay lead to turnover

Instead of focusing on foundational technology, management relies on endless, useless meetings and arbitrary deadlines to exert control via performance plans. Cliques, superficial discussions, and a pervasive blame culture now dominate the environment. With uncompetitive pay already an issue, this toxic shift is bound to trigger a rapid talent exodus.
Let the new gang of managers go and find someone who really understands the tech.
