Do the break down for developers.
- johnfn 2y agoA manager can put you on PIP, have you fired, and make your life miserable for months to years. What can an engineer do? Write some bad code that is a little annoying to refactor?
- razeh 2y agoIn finance a bad engineer can bankrupt the firm.
- sudosysgen 2y agoIf a bad engineer bankrupts the firm, it's much more the fault of many others.
- mrcsharp 2y agoA finance institution with no code review processes is one deserving to go bankrupt.
- johnnyanmac 2y agoI'd love to hear how a single IC can do this.
- steveBK123 2y agoDevelopers get marked to market quite quickly in annual reviews, if not sooner. Junk PRs, bad code, tons of bugs, acting like a jerk - it catches up fast. I've seen devs walked out the door in first 90 days of probationary period, or cut in their first annual review. For a manager there is a longer leash as the things they can impact are harder to measure with long and variable lags. So it can take 3 years easily for an obviously bad manager to be dealt with.
