Sounds like a dangerous place. Scary response. I was just shit posting and brought out some interesting insights. #tech
Sounds like an awesome place 😎
Dude seems like a troll but since Apple is all about relationships I’m sure it’s possible
Sounds like a larp lol
Gonna guess someone’s parents didn’t tell him they loved him enough. Jeez.
That’s awesome. How it should be done, fuck those politicking, word smithing useless POS managers.
This person sounds like an IC everyone will have issues with. How do you know that they are even on the right side? I'm sure they are stomping junior engineers and others getting in their way.
If they know their shit, they should speak. And if some manager gets in the way because “career aspirations / playing politics” that should 100% be crushed. It’s just unfortunate most companies respect the latter for saying the right things instead of doing the actual work. So no I have no sympathy for the guy in Siberia.
Respect for high leve ICs
I'm a high level IC reporting to C suite. I use my power responsibly. I usually use my power to protect folks from people like this person.
😂
Op, your battery is only at 28% btw.
that's enough
There are such ruthless and arrogant brats everywhere, not just in apple.
I had a phone interview with a manager at apple who gave me these same vibes. Total douchebag. n=1, but it matches the rumors I’ve heard
Sounds based. I got several directors/VPs let go in my career for fucking with the eng teams directly in revenue path. There are a LOT of managers in industry that “failed up” and should STFU more often for their own career health. Stomping on politicking BS from mid managers is the BEST thing you can do as a high level IC with influence to support your team. Nip it in the bud early.
Why not target his VP? This person and the VP are collusively using their power to destroy competition. I'm sure the VP is another useless management pawn. You can't have the cake and eat it too.
“Destroy competition”. That OP and I don’t care about whatever organization politics you are envisioning. Don’t fuck with revenue, don’t fuck with engineers who get things done. Use any methods available to protect people who get things done. That’s the message.
