Sounds like a great way to end up even more short handed in a tight labor market, especially when there are plenty of other employers who aren't going to make similar demands. "My way or the highway" isn't a great policy when you need them much more than they need you.
- toss1 5y agoIt is not a "my way or the highway"; it is expecting a "can do" attitude (and yes I understand that "my way or the highway" is toxic). Attitudes of "Can Do", "Solve the problem", "How do we get better than our competition" are pretty much the polar opposite of a "not my job" attitude. It is one thing to see in a low-level position, where a certain percentage of it is expected. But in a responsible position like serious software development, it's a red flag for lack of engagement. I've also seen it turn into an actively undermining the company attitude, which is toxic for everyone. I'd look for it to get fixed fast, or they're on the short list for "we don't really need to pay you to come here anymore" attitude.
