Time for a job switch
okamiueru@lemmy.world 9 months ago
It was the job switch that landed me in that situation. A change from a small company where about 70% was actual productivity, to a large corporation, in a team where there was severe issues with planning and working on the correct problems. So far it’s been 6 months of… well, wondering if I’m missing something, or a bigger picture somewhere, to trying to turn the ship in the right direction. If it’s still like this in another 6 months, I’ll consider a change of scenery.

That’s fair, that definitely can happen with a switch. My first year at my current company was like that and occasionally still is lol. Luckily our next few quarters I’ll be on a team that has much nicer processes so I won’t be twiddling my thumbs waiting for solid requirements.

This is exactly the situation. Except that my team consisting of consultants just “started”, instead of trying to scope out the constraints and larger picture.
Six months, and the result so far is a fairly uninteresting exploration into a happy-path use of some technologies, barely related to the task missing requirements, and as it turns out, unsuited for it. Boggles the mind how much resources are wasted on such things.
