FTFY.
I care but I am not allowed to. VC only cares about numbers that are larger then previous numbers. They hire management who tells us to make the numbers go up. those numbers go up with production so production is king. Production can be increased with a decrease in quality if we degrade the process or improving the process preserving quality. Improvement takes time and money - two hard things. So degrade it is. It's cheap, fast, and makes management look like a super star. If management doesn't give a shit, why should you?
- Juliate 2y agoIf your n+1 doesn’t give a shit, why should you stay and enable this carelessness?
- MisterTea 2y agoBecause you get paid no matter what. edit: to add, this is a recent development so of course I am looking to leave.
- Juliate 2y agoVery valid reason. But beware that it does not weigh on you and burn you out. Been there several times. It always hurts, but I should have left even earlier each time.
