Management on the other hand ..
Am management. Still hate it. Costs a fucking fortune, sprawls beyond any reasonable control, fucking impossible to secure, every product has its own operating model and support, it changes every month, and the notion of leaving it is absurd. It is a disease that everyone is infected with and their sales people will never let you go. Also, it's not like I can log into a central portal and see my employees on a map or something. I can't see their searches, their teams chats, nothing really. Maybe HR could if they weren't in the parking lot eating old cigarette butts or whatever it is they do.
Its like herpes.
Yep, not to mention it's a basic messaging program, but it regularly uses 1-2gb of ram on a lot of machines at my workplace. Had a coworker vibe code a lightweight version (terminal based), he pretty easily got it down to 80ish mb, and it mostly worked (the whole thing was mostly for shits and giggles, but surprisingly usable).
