Good ICs to work with, terrible politics at management
Good ICs to work with, terrible politics at management
- Many ICs are very technical and good to work with.
- Can learn immensely on the job about good software development.
Regarding career progress/reviews, it's not what you do that matters, it's who you know.
Management is very political. Stress is not due to work but due to politics at work.
There is heavy favoritism towards certain employees.
Too many processes for simple things.
Take a look at lower management and how ICs are being rated. Ensure fairness in the review system.
