Thank you for this. I have been waiting for someone to speak the truth. Why didn’t I raise my voice? Too pre-occupied with hanging by a thread, too tired and too exhausted. From all the fighting — that you are describing in here.

I told a friend after I just had been laid off, 2 weeks ago, that I would love to be a Product manager / PO because their work or role or tasks are hardly ever in question. But that job is effing hard and not something for me with my creative mind and voice. I would not want to trade. I just admire how respected, well-paid and clear their positions are.
