I thought so to but, apparently, it was just bad timing: layoffs happening in the slowest period of the year. I'm noticing things are picking up again (at least for senior positions).

I'd say that's a CI/CD team. Platform means different things to different people but it should offer a standardized way of doing things that's well supported while allowing for customization by developers when needed (wi

This is something governments with an interest in protecting employee wellbeing could step in. The employer pays for the time you're engaged in working AND trying to work by commuting. That 10-15h/week would, as you say, show up p

I've replaced the batteries on several phones (at authorized places) and, while I like the idea, they all started displaying weird behavior. I guess they are glued so hard that the heating needed to open them up must cause some tiny da

I'd be careful with any modernization that impacts ATS software's ability to parse it. Recruiters work through ATS systems and will rarely read a resume unless it shows up at the top of some filter. Use something like jobscan.com

If this may offer any comfort, even people with all those skills aren't getting many interviews right now.

It's not you, companies are squeezing candidates right now. Either through unreal requirements or really low offers. I've been to a few final rounds where the hiring manager was already discussing specifics of what I'd be doi

I can totally relate. This is painfully close to my experience (including the junior backstabbing to save their jobs and management not wanting to fix anything). I can't say if this is common in the industry but it's certainly the

> it’s best for everyone to end things quickly rather than hanging around Definitely, but not by escorting people out of a building or sending an email and cutting their Slack access without notice... which is what we see all the time.

Google is not sexy anymore. It's a common pattern that people join it, get frustrated and leave to do cool things somewhere else. Being an ex-Google signals you went through the grind of interviewing, started working and saw stuff but

Hybrid companies need the full remote AND on-site apparatus at the same time. They can't be half remote or people will be left off of office discussions all the time and they have to maintain expensive real estate. Imagine having to wa

Came here to comment the same. Any tool should start by asking "Could this meeting be an email, Slack message, a poll or a shared document?". Maybe even go further and ask why, so at the end of the month people can check if the re

I'm on the same page. The problem in this case was a very hands-free approach to management that suddenly changed to top-down when the chaos produced almost daily outages. So the very relaxed environment now had to somehow have rigorou

I have no doubt people will forget in time (<5 years). But anyone looking for a job ought to do due dilligence when things pick up again and at least set the correct expectations about how long their relationship with the company could l

Same situation at a different company, except they kept telling us "we made sure this won't keep happening". Of course few people believed and we lost many good engineers that simply left because they couldn't have a maj

I think better relationship with middle managers and maybe leave with the CTO if it made sense (it didn't, in my case). I was too focused on doing things and assumed the CTO was taking care of "winning the hearts" of middle m

I can totally attest to that. I once worked for a company where the CTO that was 3-4 levels above hired me directly and I reported to him. It felt very empowering and motivating because I was working on what he considered a critical area fo

In this case, physical access is very brief and almost imperceptible if you're not paying attention. It's different from trying to pry open an encrypted hard disk from a laptop or something similar. You probably won't even kn
