My department has a lot of deadweight and has been toxic/hostile since the start of the pandemic. I was hopeful there would be some clean up with the RIF but it doesn’t seem like we’re part of it since most of us are low level.
The head of my department appears to have been publicly demoted but that seems like the only impact. We’re back in the office full time but we’re not developers or project manager. What’s the point of us going back full time if the in office weeks will stay the same?! It’s impossible to get work done in the office because of how bad the culture is.
I’m kind of devastated. I was honestly hoping for better days after how much of an impact the last few years have had on my health.
Abby, you win. I am going to try to leave. I woke up thinking about how bad things are.
