* three planning layers

* no reasonable reaction on devastating feedback

* purely numbers driven. Ignoring tech debt and creativity

* no new recruits in years

* not honoring experienced programmers

* no working creative process to bring the product to the next level

* naive and reactional cargo culting

I have great colleagues. Workload is usually fine, except too many topic on the table. We have quite a lot freedom how to handle things, but not so much about the what. Our tech management is quite horrible. The top manager has unsolved conflicts with the majority of coders. Mostly because he has no idea about tech and never gives reasonable feedback. Fluctuation is currently extreme and I will be leaving soon with only 2 tech people remaining that have been there long term.

Our company has the potential to break the 1bn threshold next decade, just to give an idea about the scale.
