- people getting fired impulsively, unscrupulously, and/or over e-mail (in one instance, the firing of a couple people was sent to an entire alias, albeit mistakenly, but messy nonetheless)
- I am temperamentally and emotionally ill-equipped to work in hostile and toxic workplaces
- trust is a two way street and when a company lies to its employees it's hard to maintain that trust. Life is too short to have to watch your back inside the building.
- lack of development interest from managers
- complete opacity in decision making from leaders
- cliques and mean girls/guys- competitive environment
- when I tried to hire for diversity, I was told I needed to be "calibrated for what we are looking for"- which meant more of the same- and people the lead would "want to be friends with"-which meant those that thought the same and wouldn't question things
- only company value practiced is "put pinners first"- go, be authentic, and knit were more like wishful guidelines
- people being afraid to speak openly without consequence (rightfully so)
