Man, every second thread is something like this; "It's the MBAs! It's the managers!". As if every single employee doesn't affect "the environment".
What do you consider your responsibility, as a developer? Just following orders? Why not have a little accountability?
- dartos 2y agoDevs have little to no control over what work we do when on large enterprise projects. I’ve known many devs, myself included, who do speak up about user facing issues we’ve been keeping an eye on. We’re routinely ignored, moved to a different team, or, in the worst case, let go. The best way to affect change is to keep your head down until you’re in a management position. It’s as they say, “the fish rots from the head”
- r00fus 2y agoSo you're asking devs to fight a dysfunctional and possibly aggressively punitive organization? The real-world solution to those situations is the company falters and learns or fails and dies. Which is why monopolies and TBTF are so toxic to our workplace - bad employers who leverage suppliers/customers in a bad way and institutionalized workers who then move to other organizations and bring their diseased ideology with them make things worse for everyone.
