Not much to say here

No real bad information here

* Some genuinely kind talented teammates who still try to hold the line together * Occasional lunch or site credit * A fast crash course in what not to do at a startup

* Authoritarian leadership wrapped in chaos. * Onboarding lasted about 20 minutes, then radio silence. * No clear process or project management coverage * Expectations shift daily * Micromanagement and gaslighting cycle * The direction on Monday gets reversed by Friday, then blamed on miscommunication. * Feedback means copying existing work exactly without context or purpose. * Designers are treated like production robots rather than creative professionals. * Toxic culture dynamics * Operates on fear and performance optics * Leadership takes credit for wins mistakes are pushed down to the team. * Evaluation based on Slack activity, not actual output * Expect late Friday gotcha calls questioning commitment. * Tool and communication chaos * Slack is the only real system of record Monday project tool is ignored. * Context is constantly lost in DMs * Mental health warning: Anxiety and stress are symptoms of the environment, not the individual. Stress responses are mislabeled as attitude problems.
