A tool I built for my past company just got nominated for a European Data Science and AI award!!!

I'm over the moon that something I built is up for such an award. Be early next month before winners are announced. Oh and given I don't work there anymore, how I was told about it is a REALLY funny story .... I wasn't.

Saw a Linkedin post from my ex-manager congratulating the company and the org for great work done. He/They just forgot to mention the fact that me and another ex-employee did everything, left it practically finished and completely changed the direction of the project within the first month as their plans made no sense.

fuckers.

    Well, technically it's the company's code, not yours. They don't have to recognize or even tell you. Also, managers always get the credit, even if you'd still be working there.

    Not saying I agree with it being that way, but just stating the obvious.

    @HisAxelency oh i know its theres, and if they sold it or earned money etc I wouldn't expect anything like that. I know thats "how the world works" but i'm just so pissed about the lack of respect.

    Tag my god dam profile in the announcement. I broke my back on that project, worked late nights and weekends. It was part of a European research fund, attached to the project is a document written by the wider team (multiple companies / universities). I am literally the only name next to that company under "contributions".

    Three years ago i went to interview with guy who did not hire me.
    Two years ago that company fired him.
    Last year he works in same company which hired me instead his former company, but at lower position than me.

    @bvs23bkv33 That proves that the guy who assigned him to interview you was an idiot.
