Incompetent leadership

Pros

Freedom can be refreshing, as long as whatever you do is aligned with leadership. The tricky part is that they will never tell you, since it's supposed to be bottom-up

Cons

Incompetent leadership Bad incentives: promotes workplace posting and fake metric improvement, while leaving a mess of code debt Bad engineering practices

Pros

* Significantly improved both my technical and leadership skill sets * Nearly all of the people I worked with were friendly and competent * Pay was fantastic * I worked 40 hours per week most weeks and didn't get pressure to work longer hours

Cons

* The expectations of my job were very fuzzy for a long time, making the review cycle very stressful. * There was sometimes focus from my managers on gaming the review system rather than doing the best work I could do
