While obviously PowerPoint is ubiquitous and influential, it's interesting - I don't think I've ever used PowerPoint in professional life.
The last time I needed to prepare a slide presentation was in high school.
- engi_nerd 10y agoWe are lacking context here. What do you do?
- hnal943 10y agoGood point. I'm a dev lead in an "enterprise" company (retail). I spend my time in Balsamiq Mockups and Visio. Meeting topics are usually complex enought that we spend the time discussing a single diagram/flow.
- engi_nerd 10y agoInteresting. Thanks for answering. I'd say that not having PowerPoint presentations reflects well on you. Unfortunately in my line of work (aerospace engineering), PowerPoint is endemic. All kinds of documents that should be actual reports are just PowerPoint slides.
