- Management does not care an iota about your well-being (ex: I once had a literal house disaster in progress when I took a call from my manager and her first response upon hearing that was, "So when can you get back online?")
- There's a -lot- of behind the scenes posturing where people have kept their jobs/received promotions at the cost of undercutting others.
- During an all-hands, the director mentioned how great our work was and unironically marveled that we do it for peanuts. That was five years ago and I never saw a raise after that. So expect to either get underpaid or never see a raise commensurate with your increasing workload.
