This hits very close to home and I'm very glad to see I am (and you are) not alone. Thank you for writing it.

I'm currently in the process of leaving my "big tech" job. While I won't name my company, it is somewhat similar in some ways -- though ethics isn't my primary reason.

was the loudest thing I heard, over and over again.

Best of luck with Fourplex.
