There are snacks to eat

1. The boss pretends to know things they don't understand.

2. The boss is very good at talking nonsense.

3. They don't tell you about the team because you're a R&D engineer.

4. Meetings discuss direction A, but you're told to produce result B (often going around in circles).

5. They don't respect expertise; once they've used you, they tell you to get lost.

6. Even though you're a coding engineer, you're asked to handle hardware and system issues.

7. The boss wants to hire a full-stack engineer, but don't misunderstand what you understand by “full-stack.” Here, full-stack means being able to handle frontend, backend, systems, and hardware. Apply for an interview only if you consider yourself this kind of talent.
