Why think this by default? I am in a similar situation as OP, 20 years of experience as dev, team lead and engineering manager, yet because I didn't know the intricacies of our custom framework the second I walked in the door, many of my suggestions were dismissed upfront and, a year in, I feel it's an uphill battle to get my ideas treated with anything other than suspicion.
- jokethrowaway 4y agoThat suspicion is healthy. You don't know the technology being used, per your own admission. Ah, if only I had a dollar for every project turned into a mess because some engineering manager (who probably coded in COBOL last) thought they knew what they were talking about and pushed down some crappy choice
- tclancy 4y agoOk, but I'm an IC here.
