Things ranging from not actively harmful but not exactly useful or solving any real problem (just burning through VC money), to egovernment.
Every case was mostly a waste of my time and energy. I don’t think you can help someone or something that doesn’t want to be saved. And this is exactly how these companies got there in my experience.
Those who actually do want to change actually reach out and get the expertise they need.
I think I can’t help it though because I see the human cost in people working there and hating their lives as a result. It’s hard for me to accept that they’re adults with agency and it should be on them to try and get out.

Yes, I guess trying to make as much money as one can, until one finds a more constructive workplace, might be a more sanity-preserving approach
