Lower level can equally mean 'direct access' or 'service level' it doesn't have to be a corporate hierarchy thing
- capableweb 7y agoNow I have worked at any FANG company, or even larger than 200+ employees, but I've never heard "lower level dev" to mean they have "low level access". Is this a common label to give people who have access to production database for example?
- shawnz 7y agoProbably not, I was just speaking informally.
- artsyca 7y agoWe're so quick to climb onto the corporate hierarchy even as we scorn the 'suits' and their corner offices Every dev has low level access at some point be it writing or approving production code where do you think the concept of Easter eggs comes from which these clearly fit the description It seems however we've gone so far up the ass of the corporate machine that we have become synonymous with it I read a funny excerpt the other day in a book -- when Rome was full of slaves everyone started adopting a slave mindset because it was everywhere pretty soon you can't distinguish slave from master and so it is here when we as devs put ourselves into comfortable stereotypes but what do I know I'm just a low level dev
