Yep this is pretty much what I came into the thread to read about. I'm sure the claims have merit and I don't doubt that Reddit could have a toxic work culture (just look at the decision making over the years, clearly people aren't comfortable pushing back against bad ideas)
Just usually when I hear about toxic grind culture, the company is producing something, be it content or some competitive product.
Reddit is doing what other open source devs are doing for free, and somehow doing that badly. The app is bad, the front end for new Reddit is constantly buggy, and it takes a very long time for things to get fixed.
What are they doing to the workers...
