Ever had a boss who micro-manages every single thing you do? I joined this startup with high hopes, excited about the vision and the team. However, my manager is making it impossible to get anything done efficiently. They’re constantly looking over my shoulder, second-guessing every decision I make, and it’s driving me crazy. It’s gotten to the point where I dread going to work because I know I'll be nitpicked on every task, no matter how small. I’ve tried talking to them about needing more autonomy, but it only seems to make things worse.

If you are feeling this, then the company must be doing better? They are prioritizing logics beyond emotions, overutilizing staffs to get their things done, heavy control on the product and customers. Unfortunately, isnt this the very reason why you joined the company? The cutthroat growth always mostly comes with aggressive work culture. They have found the way to make you work and be deaf to your problems, it makes you do more for them. You should find your own way out of these if you have to survive there

Try over-communicating for a while. Send daily updates, cc them on emails. They might realize they don't need to hover so much. And if that does not work, try Setting up a 1-on-1 to discuss your work style and how their management style is impacting your performance.

Classic founder syndrome. They can't let go of control. Try framing it as "By micromanaging, you're limiting the company's growth potential" lol
