    I fucking hated work for big tech. Like every single creative part of me was being sucked away.

    I work for a corporation you have never heard of now. We are a subcontractor of a subcontractor and get to do the actual engineering. There is a towering bureaucracy above us that adds no value and gets all the credit. Which I am fine with, they can have the credit I have the glory.

      Same here, really didn’t have the feeling I was doing much fruitful work at all. So much energy spent in meetings, and political nonsense.

      It’s refreshing to just get to focus on getting things done.
