Worklife-balance emergency on some teams
Worklife-balance emergency on some teams
Modern development infrastructure and practices; hands-on and ability to contribute key features.
Things were ok for the first two years. But in the past year:
- Serious work-life balance issues on some teams.
- Never ending slew of high priority projects.
- Unsuitable for junior developers, who watched juniors have to spend 60 hours a week due to ineffective management and unhelpful team leads, with the expectation that low experience juniors are to operate like seniors because being junior is at odds with the never ending slew of emergency projects.
We’re losing a lot of people lately.
Take note of the teams that people keep leaving and put more blame on the managers or team lead, instead of being afraid of losing the lead or manager. If they lose 4 or more people in a year, no matter what “reason” they give, then take a look at the work life balance for that team.
Nike shoes shouldn’t be hurting people.
