Have you ever experienced a cultural drift at you company? What caused it? At mine, there was a change of incentives that caused managers to get more micromanaging and totally changed the dynamic.

At a previous job I experienced what I guess could be called a cultural drift. The company was acquired and we took on some new management, who were world class nickel and dimers. Suddenly everything was being done on the cheap and it was just constantly aggravating.

Yes we had one recently when we had a change in upper management. They started taking away some of the incentives they offered employees and cracking down on some things while allowing people to still get away with other things. The morale is in the toilet now.

Leaving soon for brand management role in CPG which I’m really excited about but curious if this will close the door to opportunities (product marketing, non technical product manager) in tech in the future. Really interested in the brand management role but if I end up not liking it the comp trajectory is not nearly as good as tech and wanted to know if that door will still be open. 2YOE, if I make a switch would likely be at 4-5YOE assuming I don’t go MBA route
