Ordering of stuff from central IT. I waited 3 months for my RSA token (which I need for working remotely). My boss waited 4 months for a dev server he desperately needs for a customer project. The request for the server was only processed when my boss talked to some other guy who knows someone from the central IT department. And the requested server wasn't even physical hardware but a virtual server!
- iamdave 10y agoI waited 3 months for my RSA token (which I need for working remotely). My boss waited 4 months for a dev server he desperately needs for a customer project. Pardon my language: holy shit. How large is your organization??? All I do at work is build dev environments, manage credential storage, and every now and then get roped into server upgrades kicking and screaming...four months for a freaking dev environment??? FOUR? How does this happen?
- wellsthrowaway 10y agoAt Wells Fargo, I'd kill for a dev environment in general. We only do production-classified-as-dev. And 4 months? Slow down! We're six months...if you're lucky.
- 0xdeadbeefbabe 10y agoAt Wells Fargo don't you kill if there is a sales incentive program to kill?
- wlesieutre 10y agoHow's that joke go? Everybody has a testing environment, some people are lucky enough to have a separate environment to run production in?
- user5994461 10y agoHow do you guys manage to do anything? Are you even trying?
- atmosx 10y agoSeems like you guys should choose more wisely who you're doing business with. There's no real excuse for delivering a dev server in 4 vm in months. You sure he ordered one server and not say a dedicated cluster of 4.000 servers?
- superuser2 10y agoAnd people wonder why developers flock from "real" businesses to Silicon Valley.
