After mass layoffs my team went from 10 engineers to 4 with no drop in expectations. This was a ridiculous ask, everyone was burnt out and could not keep up. For some reason the geniuses in management gave me a bad performance review despite me doing 2 to 3 full time workloads.

That day I put in applications and got an offer in less than a month from one of them. Put in my notice and suddenly it was surprised Pikachu face. Now they are down to 3 engineers and admitted it would be months before they had the revenue to even backfill my position.

Good riddance.

    With that being said they might as well cash out and close shop because they've dug themselves into a hole they can't get out of by treating the engineering department like shit. Fuck that and fuck companies like that. Good job on the new position!

    Yes, people, I mean management, do not understand that they will collapse the company their own bare hands, giving too much of work for people and then say they are not good enough, because the context switching takes more than actual work.

    Good luck on the new position!
