Poor Employee Compliance - Anonymous employee Six Atomic Employee Review

* Cooperative coworkers. No office politics. * Required OT gets compensated as leave days you can request. This can carry over fully to next year. * A startup with big dreams. This compact company of 30 aspires to do in 1 week what the monopoly of 1000 hasn't managed for decades, and narrates that the monopoly just lacks the ideas. * Motivational town hall to take pride in and dedicate to what we do, where owner motivates us by sharing he works 6 days a week. * Owner encourages AI use, with weekly usage leaderboard and minimum usage target. * "No rule-based" mantra mandates that implementation must not use disallowed input information. It is expected of algorithms to not use information, understand user intent, work without config, and automatically generalise to new problem class with this discipline, saving labor of redesign effort. * Management supplies you with implementation ideas.

* You're responsible for making those ideas work. If they don't work or generalise the ways they imagined, it's your fault. * No longer allowed to write code or inspect visual product - will fail kpi for not prompting AI - and you're still responsible for making things work. * Mid-level engineers earn less than 1/4 of non-engineers who supply the ideas, goals, and deadlines.

- Management makes it a point to remind engineers that AI can replace them. Helpful context for anyone considering long term career plans here. - The job scope is intentionally flexible. So flexible that neither you nor your manager can define it. Keeps things interesting. - Full responsibility is given for every outcome with zero authority to influence it. A great opportunity to practice accountability. - Performance is measured by AI usage. The more you use it the better you are rated. A very modern approach to engineering excellence. - On site attendance is mandatory every day without exception. Ideal for those who enjoy a predictable routine. - No defined career path, no best practices, no mentorship structure in place. Plenty of room to find your own way.

- Systemic operational failures in every aspect of management.
