Tone deaf to what? Oh yeah it was absolutely the right thing to happen, it wasn't working. That's not quite the same as "deserved to let go". I suspect any senior developer person with an architectural remit and fair breadth of experience would have the same problems there.
- wink 9y agoSometime it just doesn't fit, but what you're describing is what often happens if the organization is not listening. Sure, some people charge in and exclaim everything sucks in their first week, but if the org isn't accepting objective improvement sometimes it's better to just run instead of fighting windmills.
- singingfish 9y agoYeah one of the mistakes I made was taking the "everything sucks" approach too early and too often. I don't think that taking a different approach would have helped though. Sometimes I think it takes (near-)complete turnover of the original implementation team to make things suck less.
