This is one of the most irrational things I’ve ever read on here so congratulations I guess. The people in the team are not the ones to blame if the teams are too big, you are (if you are in charge). Therefore if you actually want to fix the problem, the person you need to fire before starting over is yourself.
- moomoo11 4y agoI’m ESL and the context of my comment is management and my opinion on what company should do. Get rid of engineering managers. And yes. Fire all the management who caused shit to get that bad. I 100% stand by that.
- seanhunter 4y agoFire the management who caused shit to go bad != fire everyone. If you actually are sincere about fixing things, actually finding the causes is very important.
- moomoo11 4y agoHow do you fix a broken pipe that’s already had a dozen patches on it? Keep adding more and it stays broken? At some point you have to just rip it out and put a new one in. I’m personally fine just leaving and getting a new job if things get wack. Unless I can get to senior leadership level I can’t do much when the culture is already so ingrained. That’s why you need an Elon or someone like that with guts to just come in and fire people.
