I'm not engaged because the company I'm in keeps firing everyone and I spend every day wondering if it is me or someone I rely on who is next. I also got in right as the last of the small company culture was getting strangled by big corp nonsense so I've basically just been adjusting from one game plan to the next every month for the last couple years, while listening to what's left of the old guard talk about how much better everything used to be. I spend more time in meetings about all the different bureaucracies I have to engage in than I do working on anything meaningful

Wow are you me?

You just left out the Brain Storm meeting where we list every job function we have and write it all down, so that it absolutely could not be used to replace us with third world talent.

Oh and then they decide they're going to be your project managers so absolutely nothing gets done until some normal employee actually takes over, not that they get paid for it.

Somehow the third party consultancy company in India (they are always called something like Avant Solutions LTD) never gets fired.

Was about to say the same thing. I just had a call to inform my team that they are going to change our reporting lines for the 4th time in the last 6 months.

As if that even works.

If you are in any kind of knowing+ problem solving role, a bunch of tasks doesn't explain having ownership or responsibilities.

That sucks that you are being subjected to that as part of the enshitification.

Do we work at the same company?
