End-to-end Work, Contractor Issues
End-to-end Work, Contractor Issues
- Empowered to do the job end to end. You get to see all aspects of the project (i.e. not only engineering but also business requirements, return on investment data, etc).
- Great salary, bonus plan, and stock options.
- Flexible telecommuting experience.
- Great operations team supporting the project post-deployment.
- You need to rely on outside contractors for the design details, and sometimes they do not do a complete job. You are still responsible for their work and need to review it in detail, as if there are issues you are held accountable. Sort of doing two jobs.
- Hire PhD-holding engineers who know what they are doing.
- Too many managers.
- Managers get promoted very quickly, while the technical people who do the actual work take a much longer time to be acknowledged.
