> Now corporate has mandated AI usage and is asking people to do 10k LOC PRs every day.

That's a big red flag if I ever saw one. Corporate should be empowering the engineering team to use AI tooling to improve their own process organically. Is this true or exaggeration? If it's true I'd start looking for a more balanced position at more disciplined org.

Mandates are becoming normal. Most devs don’t seem to want to but they want to keep their jobs.

True at Doordash, Amazon, and salesforce - speaking from experience.
