I work at a place similar to this. That basically if you try to give your input and it happens to be a better idea. You’ll get looked at like your dumb and if anything goes wrong it’s your fault. It like but but...... I was just showing you a better way.

@MikeOcasio did you quit? I only lasted a month. I wish I had left the second time I told them they needed their code backed up. They also didn't use any type of board for work items so it was a constant free for all.

@georgelynch unfortunately I’m still here. I just happen to do my job well enough that they can’t find a reason to fire me lol I’m sure I’m more trouble to them by sticking around anyway. All I’m waiting for is a good outage of power. I have all my source backed up 😅

@MikeOcasio be careful a place like that will cause you to work long and irregular hours. Once I get tired and sleep deprived all it takes is one more messed up incident and I am done. It burns you quickly.

@georgelynch yeah I see what you mean. I’m currently looking for another job, but until then ... haha

Ezard19607ySee I work at a place where everyone (including management) agrees that we need more testing...yet we still have no testing lol
It'll happen eventually
I must admit sometimes agile methodology zealots annoy me but I just quit a shop with no process, no source code repository, and no testing. I worked there a month and had no idea such places still exist. I knew it was a bad idea but I needed remote work. I tried to evangelize to them but they blamed me for everything after they fired the project manager.
