    I mean, it’s a useful feature… But only if you have a good company culture.

        They exist, but people don’t leave them once there, so new jobs don’t come up as often.

          I’d argue they evaporte more and more every year as companies are acquired or if they get a new CEO that’s all about cutting costs blindly without any regard for quality or quality of life.

          Not many left.

            Yes, I worked at one of those pre-covid. I remember my colleague leaving her laptop and work phone on her desk at the end of the day around 4pm. We also had small offices with 2-4 people in a historical building right in the city center.

            Then we merged with a bigger company, their culture ate us, and all the best people left, the rest are sitting in an open office at the edge of the city. Funny enough, I worked on the merger as one of the leads, I was so happy getting an oportunity like that while young. Now looking back I realized that it was a bad thing we have done (not that we had a choice), and the end result is worse for employees, customers, and even shareholders.

          Agreed. I feel like I’m in one, and the things that make us thrive are being tested like an immune system, against what feels like a deliberate Maek Number Go Up infection. It’s stressful and I can only try to trust that it’s necessary. I guess we have to keep that stock number up or else we get bought and destroyed by a competitor.

          Not a fan of this whole system sometimes.
