What are we even doing?
I've been here long enough to see no strategy, no vision, just random decisions. Prove me wrong.
Offboarding Process
Do they revoke access to everything immediately? Since it happens (usually) on Monday mornings do you have to work the rest of the week or do you get to use PTO?
