Middle management brings in WITCH like traits with low pay raises, long hours, strict office hours starting 9am, micromanaging, screaming and yelling, high PIP rate. Middle management cost cutting for their own promos so that they can send their kids to Harker. Hiring and promoting only those from the same state and village in 🇮🇳 Was it a mistake to hire ex-WITCH folks into any new role?
I've barely seen WITCH management in faang. And I've been around.
My suspicion, as someone who started in the software industry in the early 2000s, is that all the decent employees got their big payout. They got their millions from Google or Apple or Facebook or whatever startup, and they’ve retired in their 40s. The only people left in the industry are the no good ones.
This .. I think we should reevaluate Apple Amazon and Google of today (meta and Netflix will join that list in 2/3 years maybe). The FAANG of 2024 is nowhere near FAANG of 2010-18
The best early-career talent now goes into finance ( quant hedge fund and HFT ). The middle early-career talents go into AI start-ups ( open-AI, Anthropic ) The lower early-career talents go into FAANG. Google = IBM, Amazon = witch
Google stock is doing great. That should auto boost your TC a lot. Imaging Apple at similar price for last 2 years
True in Indian-heavy team.
Totally agree, product and service industry folks are different in every aspect. I know some product companies that have hired witch engineers and are now in shambles.
An ex witch HR manager has joined our startup and has made life hell. He's putting his dick everywhere he goes and is being a massive pain in the ass
