3 Product Managers = Recipe for disaster

Sounds like you are suffering serious leadership/management issues. Unless you are at start up that is making money and is profitable, kind of sounds like a sinking ship?

I was previously at a start up where it sounds similar to what you are experiencing. Except the business model of the product was failing, I had off shore developers and the business side started point fingers at the the development department. Which was just me and I was the only paid employee. (The company never ever made 1 cent of revenue.)

Regardless after 70 days I resigned, without another job. It took me a year or so to really recover from the exhaustion of the start up.

My only advice is keep in mind that burn out can have far reaching effects after you leave the stressful situation.

Also it's just a job. I know it's difficult to see that in the heat of the moment. But life is so much more than a job. Jobs come and go...

Sane words. However sometimes life pressures like building a nest egg for a family while advancing in age and having to support them through a tough (non US) economy, with few jobs sharply reduces available options in similar situations, piling up the misery.
