Many crappy engineers
Many crappy engineers
Great place to work with many smart people. Good leadership. Upper management invests heavily in individuals.
The company is too nice. Some engineers are seriously incompetent, not just technically but also lacking common sense. They are basically producing nothing useful.
Fire more people. Bad engineers are worse than not having an engineer, and they are a net negative because people have to waste time fixing their crap. Spending time mentoring a bad engineer is a complete waste. Managers should also be more harsh in weeding people out.
