๐Ÿ’” โ€œIโ€™m tired of feeling unnoticed.โ€

Let that sink in.

1๏ธโƒฃ Toxic Culture

โ†’ The emotional air people breathe matters.

2๏ธโƒฃ Poor Leadership

โ†’ Micromanagement & favoritism kill morale faster than low pay.

7๏ธโƒฃ Poor Compensation

Transparency begins with real conversations.

You donโ€™t need to start over.

You need to build systems people actually want to stay in.
