My team in Cloud-pak has started to annoy me. I joined IBM 2 years ago right out of grad school as an SWE working on full stack dev. Our releases are always very poorly planned. No UI designs until half the dev cycle is completed. No concrete requirement-documents. PMs come with new requirements every now and then. Architect changes things late in the delivery cycle. We've to attend to technical customer-support calls that support-team is not able to help with. I initially thought this might be something just for this release. But since I've seen 3 such releases and I'm losing hope that anything is ever going to change. Is it just me? Is this how tech industry works? Are there companies that follow more organized processes? I'm planning to switch and it makes me wonder what if it's worse at a new place. TC: 175K Yoe: 2 Bay area #swe #dev #tech
Was like that at Cisco for me. LinkedIn has been much better
Yeah. Been here 9 years and I see that shit everywhere. Only thing you can do is find the person responsible for the product and talk with them. Or lead changes/releases yourself. It’s a struggle bus
"Is it just me? Is this how tech industry works?" Welcome to tech. Every company has their own version of this drama, even FAANG.
You gotta leave asap. Life after ibm is so much better!!
My teams just like that.
Not all IBM teams are so terrible… But all companies will have their own issues. Working on cloud paks is especially hard though because the paks are so new and the teams supporting the paks are also new with no mature processes in place. Everyone on those teams are having a hard time, not just the SWE.
