Digital transformation is hard, internal politics makes it harder - Senior UX Designer Nutrien Employee Review

Two things: Politics and tech debt 1. There are some nasty people in the digital division who you don't want to get on the wrong side of. Disagree with product leadership at your own risk. These people smile to your face and then talk behind your back. There's lots of turnover partly because talent leaves when they realize the political landscape. But there is also turnover because people have their job one day and are unexpectedly gone the next because they unintentionally angered the wrong person. 2. The other downside is the huge amount of technical debt associated with their transition to SAP. They've been working on it for 3+ years and there is no end in sight. Long, slow, grueling roadmaps are the norm. The further behind they get, the more pressure is put on the people who do the work. Working nights and weekends was normal and encouraged in the months before I left.
