The boss likes to pretend to know things he doesn’t understand. Every day, you only need to say things he can’t understand, let him go direct other people to do the work, occasionally listen to him berate colleagues and brag about how great the products are, and pretend to be busy and stay a little later at your desk so you won’t be singled out.

This is truly a place full of lies. The position advertised and the actual job duties are completely different. I repeatedly asked about this during the interview, and they said all the necessary hardware and equipment was available. When I started, what I saw was genuinely shocking. When I requested that more equipment be purchased, they simply told me to do something else. After a month, I still haven’t done the work I originally applied for—only endlessly revising the same design materials. I also have to keep pretending to attend meetings with a group of people who don’t understand anything. Whenever it is actually time to ask for opinions or discuss something, they all reveal themselves and play dumb. Unfortunately, the person leading the group happens to be the most problematic and least intelligent of them all. They constantly bad-mouth colleagues and sow discord, while not even knowing what they themselves are directing. It really is just as the previous person said: Don’t close the job-search website; if you can get away, leave as quickly as possible.
