Svantaggi
This place was never known for being a positive work environment, and it has sadly taken a turn for the worse in the last year. Leading up to Tim's firing, Tim had become a complete egomaniac and this culture of selfishness was becoming rampant. Many chill people left and many remaining have been in a full-on land-grab for more prestigious titles and positions. The toxicity became too much. I tried fighting it off, but it was a losing battle. I'm worried that the current direction could lead to more reckless decisions and a degraded engineering culture. The technical challenges ahead are *massive* and will require billions with big teams of drivers. But the code quality is only getting worse, technical debt more crippling, and morale is sinking.
