Pros
Once upon a time Allata was full of inspiring and wonderful people. The market was HOT, times were good, hiring was up. There were even bonuses, health stipends, interesting projects, fun events. I hear tales of the times when the bench was for having fun and learning new things, of people knowing their coworkers. Promotions were common and frequent. Then the great dragon of private equity swooped in.
Cons
The great dragon of private equity decimated the culture. No more health stipends, no more bonuses, no more 401k match, bonusly halved, off shore resources acquired, coworkers sent to the job termination guillotine. No more fun, only billable hours, AI forced into every aspect of your lives and every sentence from leadership. The work becomes a blur of AI nonsense, The projects are money grabs and the poor peasants of Allata are burned by the dragons flames. *** This beautiful art piece was not written by AI ***
