Lunch and learns don't outweigh daily parking costs and micromanagement

Mechanical engineer

Recommend

CEO approval

Business outlook

Pros

Lunch and learns are nice. And they do have clear career growth timelines.

Cons

They expect you to pay for daily parking which adds up fast. Not flexible WFH. Micromanagement and harsh. Lack of middle engineers because they all leave once they have experience yet leadership does nothing to retain.
