> We had this debate between dev in my company because the execs want to see everyone certified for the cloud provider they spent millions choosing without asking us, fine.
I've heard of something similar.
One of the employee suggested that he didn't need the cert. This really didn't sit well with management. Then he explained why: his previous job was on the team building said cloud product they decided to use. That was the reason he got hired.
Useless to say he didn't work there long.
- xwolfi 5y agoAh that's cool :D Me all I could say was "but I spent years deploying in aws when you chose another one when everyone told you not to and nobody s using it because nobody needs it, not because we're not certified". I was met with "you need to get the cert by end of the year", which I got the next week, my eyes rolled the entire time. At least I got to impress people... like I say my colleagues all the time, the best bosses are those who care about useless metrics because they're easy to meet and you dont have to actually deliver anything of value to get praise and raise...
