thanks for the depressing pep talk today. your encouragement and intimidation tactics only ensure I'm making the right decision to leave. also no one cares. design tea is a time suck and operations is a pain in the a-s.

Charlie makes trump look like a stable genius.
he writes articles, he fires people, hes like the cool dad who tries too hard. hes just a talking head who implements new processes every other day and asks for us designers to jump through hoops. we just want to design but were just buried in red tape.

Tunahead needs to go.
I’m making the same decision. I was sticking around to watch the ship sink. It’s a big ship and frankly I just don’t care enough anymore to watch it. It’s been a ride.

There is no vision at the company at all. If you are apart of another company you will clearly see just how much it’s missing here.
If you ask your managers and their managers what their vision and strategy to achieve their targets are, they will not have any thing of substance to respond with. Careful though, asking these types of questions have been met with reprimand.

As long as the stock price is going up the ELT is happy.
