This may seem like a daft question. But do the other Devs know you're a junior?
I've worked at companies where juniors have been hired to fill senior roles so they've been given access to prod, expected to know the quirks of the language (not the system obviously) and to be able to get on without too much hand holding.
If the Devs think you're a senior then they might just think you're incompetent when you're not you're just new at all this!
I've never worked anywhere someone hired as a junior could break prod code just makes me think perhaps the hiring process is screwed up.
- BlargMcLarg 5y agoThe hiring process is screwed up. A large number of companies expect starters to "hit the ground running", despite not being remotely close to providing the facilities needed to do so. Someone else already said it. Ideally this is a company problem. In practice this often becomes a personal problem.
