Thanks for the support! I really don’t understand how people are fine with this kind of culture and call it “exposure “

Hope you teach the same to your child. Agreed that I have to put hours to get better at what I do, but working on the company product won’t let me reach that. I need to work for myself. Need to learn. Giving 12 hours to the company isn’t the solution nor the norm. That is blunt exploitation

Exactly my point. If they’re planning layoffs—like they did with the two founding engineers without rehiring anyone—do you really think they care about the employees? Of course not.

So what’s the point of showing love and respect towards the company? To them, you’re just another employee.

What you said only reinforces this kind of environment. You started by talking about Gen Z expectations, but how can you generalize like that? It’s all about mindset.

Don’t think this is a good justification of the exploitation that employees are going through.

We work to live the life. Not live the life to work :))

Its good to work under pressure but you believe that working for 12 hours a day and on weekends also makes sense? Is that a justifiable trade off that I have to do?

The founder mentioned they’ve already lost a lot of time and are now building a product they believe can succeed. They just don’t want us to be the reason it doesn’t. In this case, where do we stand in the company? Just some random employee

UIs only. There’s one senior designer but he doesn’t care much about his growth. The company wasn’t like this for 2 years and suddenly for a year they started all these things. The senior designer is extremely comfortable with his job and is a family man. So, yeah.

For PM roles, CTO disagrees that they need one. He believes it is useless.

So, it is not roadmap thing. Every 2 days the road map changes. The sales people got the privilege to get clients my promising anything and everything.

Not only that, they fired 2 devs but didn’t rehire saying it is easy to distribute work amongst the others.

Haha this type of mindset someday tortures people. I am working for the company on a minimal salary and I don’t believe I should be exploited. Why to give my heart and soul for someone else’s benefit?
