I feel much happier writing functional code than OOP code...
And I don't believe much in engineers believing in the company's mission. That is an HR delusion, in my opinion. Yes, of course, some buy-in is good, even ideal, especially later on. But really. At some point, you want a job, you want to get paid, you want it to be somewhat meaningful, but how many choices do you have? I don't have a lot of choices of companies that want me, so I don't much care about the topics I work on. Unfortunately companies care a lot about what they think I want to work on, and they deduce it from facts in my CV I am legally obliged to disclose.
- davidwritesbugs 4y agoYea this looked a bit odd, and I'd not heard anyone say it before. I have therefore made a mental note for job interviews: "I was attracted to your job ad by your tech stack, but I made the application because I was just BLOWN AWAY by your awesome mission to re-invent inventory cataloguing."
