Use all that free work time to look around for a job with actual work.
Identify gaps and inefficiencies in the workflow. Come up with fixes / solutions. Step outside your realm to help where it’s needed to get work flowing to your team better. Poke senior management about it. I’m positive they’ll appreciate knowing that they’ve been pissing tens of thousands down the drain. Whether or not they give you credit for it is a different story. Best case you get workflow + promotion / bonus / recognition. Worst case you just get the work you’ve been wanting and someone higher takes the credit for your idea. But if they do then you know what kind of workplace you’re dealing with, plus you know you’ll be able to outmaneuver them later.
Good idea thanks man, do I go above my manager
Op is at wayfair. You should search for more posts from wayfair people, it’s an entertaining read if you like train wrecks. None of the stuff you mentioned would pass, though it might help op because this might actually get them fired.
TechLead got fired by having a YouTube channel. Maybe you can try that and could become a good source of income in the future too
