> This is part of why I'm insisting you need to work with me to be able to communicate. You are reaching for assumptions that justify your position. My opinions are shaped by these TERRIBLE experiences.

Not really. I'm reaching my conclusion after several experiences in various domains (fintech, ad tech, logistics software, and government-adjacent firms). Each company is terrible in its own little way. The reasons aren't always the same, but they can vary from colleagues to bizarre pipelines, to management to CEOs.

I have communicated this to management, to PO, to scrum masters, to a point. I don't want to get fired of course.

And I can see the outlines of what caused these issues and why management is doing what it is, but that's again tied to a larger economy at play.

> You're not stuck where you are, so stop acting like that.

Again, you're assuming you understand my condition.

It's a different pickle. I'm waiting for an external thing to happen (it has been continuously delayed for nearly 12 months) to be able to change jobs. Not that it's easy in the current market.
