Absolutely. When I left my last job (team lead), I did the best I could to leave my team in a good position for the future. Got my code into a working state, documented everything I could, including stuff I hadn't touched in months. Made sure I left a time-critical project in a good enough state that they could demo to the client.
Even after all that, I still got a panicky call a couple weeks ago about a project that hadn't been touched in over a year. You can only go back so far :-)
- euroderf 5y agoDid you answer it with a freebie or with the billing clock running ?
- uranium 5y agoFor former colleagues I'm personally always willing to answer a reasonable number of questions for free. But after leaving one particularly-unpleasant situation, I did barter that I'd give a friend a brain dump if we could do it over dinner and he'd expense it =*).
- HeyLaughingBoy 5y agoThis was a freebie since I was sympathetic: supply chain issues hit them really hard. The employer before that, it was $200/hour and they were happy to pay it.
