Comment on The Reason So Many Autistic Adults Can't Stay Employedparent

Comments

In my experience, autistic adults - if employed in their area they care about - will also care about things like ‘does it work’, ‘is it good’, ‘is it doing the right thing’.

That will get you targeted in the current corp environment pretty bad.

They also tend to compulsively tell the truth - also a bad idea in the current corp environment.

And if doing something outside of their interest, burnout is hard to avoid. Especially when you have bosses screaming at you to go go go - to do stuff that just doesn’t work.

Yeah I'm thankful I have a direct manager who I can use as a "filter" for my bluntness.

Absolutely this.
