When you start a job, you are a noob from the perspective of processes, frameworks, paradigms, and current codebase. You're most susceptible to intellectual bullying in this stage. It's really what makes switching jobs the worst part in programming: you look like an idiot no matter what the first week or two, and are completely at the mercy of your manager and team culture to sink or swim. Add a new language as ammunition to be intellectually bullied? No thanks.
