Sure. Basically started off there working with analysis teams. You will be working with some very old school managers who follow a strict hierarchy. Things may seem golden for a couple months, but then the threats and intimidation go into full gear. I was told that I would be held liable for failures even though my manager was making the decisions which were resulting in failures. I was told multiple times that if a project was not done, I would be in big trouble.

If I spoke up about a new technology or method, I was told sarcastically that "oh you're so smart". I have been told that the work I am doing isn't rocket science.

Micromanagement has been the norm lots of digging into the details of the project by managers who don't even know the difference between Java and Javascript.

Nothing is in writing so managers frequently will bring up issues about things not getting done or taking a different direction. The politics are rotten.

Thanks for sharing your story! I'll try and talk to the hiring team to look for indicators of such team politics.
