I've worked at visual effects studios working on feature films, and in that industry (where proprietary workflows rule) there is always an education department. Even if one used to work there, being gone for a year is enough to make one useless as the workflows change radically, VFX technologies move fast. When I spent time consulting at web shops, I was dismayed at the undocumented and loose workflows, plus no process documentation in sight. I get the sense the web is the worse of modern tech exploitation work practices. Hell, working in video games looks better.

- bsenftner 5y agoUndocumented is much worse than your comment seems to realize. Wait until you are in a situation when the only people that know a mission critical procedure quit or die. This can cause entire large companies to crumble, as well as the reason so much confusion exists in development, and is also a reason the industry relies on leet code testing - if you don't know something before being hired, nobody can explain it there because they are all fixing fires or on not-really-understanding auto-pilot.
