Morale has fallen off a cliff with large performance layoffs this year under a “raising the bar” banner, demanding more for less. This decimation has gutted the culture. If backfilling happens, it’s with off-shore workers who get half the pay at most.
AI vision is the worst I’ve heard of, they absolutely despise their tech workers and can’t wait to not have them in the loop at all.
Pay has stagnated, refreshers were overpriced, promotions are no where to be seen outside of management.
This is not a career role anymore which is unfortunate as it was once very good.
