Engineering culture is taking a beating
Engineering culture is taking a beating
- Kind and talented co-workers.
- Generous AI token spend.
- A fairly transparent company that has been getting less transparent over the years.
- Lots of opportunity for impact.
- Product management discipline is quite lacking since the new CTO joined.
- Microsoft culture is adding more chaos and stress, and causing projects to actually go slower.
- Managers are afraid to tell the truth to Mikhail about the loopholes in engineering. They just want to look good, so they rush their teams to ship crap.
- Top engineering leaders are moving out of management roles or leaving the company.
- Tobi used to be far more involved in ensuring a high engineering bar, but seems to have handed over the reins to the new Microsoft regime.
