But the continuing incompetence in management is taking its toll, the team is losing its magic.
The overall stress level is high, decisions are usually tactical, made on the spot but has long term, usually conflicting effects. No clear direction, lack of unity. The internal structure is best described as a federation of clans. The result is a demotivated team of talented engineers, incapacitated with needless political battles.
There is no performance bonus. Expecting a reward for good work after a year in such a short sighted, tribalistic organization is not realistic anyway.
The perks and benefits are losing their appeal, too.
