Questa domanda può essere considerata soggettiva (ho ricevuto un avvertimento) ed essere chiusa, ma rischierò di farlo, poiché ho bisogno di qualche buon consiglio / esperienza su questo.
Ho letto quanto segue alla pagina "Informazioni" di Fog Creek Software , la società che Joel Spolsky ha fondato ed è CEO di:
Back in the year 2000, the founders of Fog Creek, Joel Spolsky and Michael Pryor, were having trouble finding a place to work where programmers had decent working conditions and got an opportunity to do great work, without bumbling, non-technical managers getting in the way. Every high tech company claimed they wanted great programmers, but they wouldn’t put their money where their mouth was.
It started with the physical environment (with dozens of cubicles jammed into a noisy, dark room, where the salespeople shouting on the phone make it impossible for developers to concentrate). But it went much deeper than that. Managers, terrified of change, treated any new idea as a bizarre virus to be quarantined. Napoleon-complex junior managers insisted that things be done exactly their way or you’re fired. Corporate Furniture Police writhed in agony when anyone taped up a movie poster in their cubicle. Disorganization was so rampant that even if the ideas were good, it would have been impossible to make a product out of them. Inexperienced managers practiced hit-and-run management, issuing stern orders on exactly how to do things without sticking around to see the farcical results of their fiats.
And worst of all, the MBA-types in charge thought that coding was a support function, basically a fancy form of typing.
Una verità schietta sulla maggior parte delle grandi aziende di software di oggi! Purtroppo non tutti gli sviluppatori sono come gutsy
(o lucky
, posso dire?) come Joel Spolsky! Quindi la mia domanda è:
Il modo migliore per lavorare con tali gestori, tenerli a bada e comunque offrire un ottimo lavoro?
