When I started, there were many layoffs—some understandable, others completely unexpected. Early on, I saw strong, talented people leave because they were burned out. The main management often lied to the team, promising no more restructuring, but over the course of a year, there were constant changes. You could come to work one day and be let go the next. Layoffs for employees outside the headquarters were handled poorly, often without following proper rules or notice periods, sometimes cutting people off work immediately with no warning. Aside from the occasional chance to work from home, there were virtually no additional benefits to speak of.
