• Management and higher-level bosses are often perceived as rude.
• In this month, the company terminated six employees, which may create opportunities for remaining staff to receive promotions.
• All directors were pleased with their decision to reduce expenses by terminating unproductive employees, with the exception of one director who may not share this sentiment.
• During the meetings, some of the terminated individuals received multiple shoutouts for their exceptional contributions and efforts. But at the end higher management egos hurts and we fired.
• Engineering directors are often not sufficiently technical, lacking knowledge about product code and its structure. Their high salaries, which is 2 times or 3 times of a Senior Software Engineer, appear disproportionate to their responsibilities, which may include tasks as basic as approving employee leave.
• Being an informant and favorite to your manager or director can lead to promotions and salary hikes, and protection even when you lack knowledge of the company's product.
• Some experienced employees with product knowledge are receiving less than 50% of directors' salaries. Additionally, in the US, many managers and directors have directly allocated work to developers and quality engineers in India. This raises the question of why numerous directors have been hired in the India office with a significantly high pay grade.
