It will be like where I was working. On that project there were ~12 people. You could’ve cut in in half easily:

• AFAIK the project manager did nothing but create meetings (tbh they had no clue what they were doing)
• The QA was incompetent and instead I wrote all their tests and taught the junior dev so he could too
• 2 User Researchers set up various sessions – but the business told them all their findings were wrong (turns out the researchers were right)
• Architect went to some meetings and never spoke to the devs about anything (turns out they were responsible for multiple projects at once, which obviously makes things hard)
• The Lead Developer seemed to be on holiday every other day, dealing with some personal issue, or in meetings
• One Dev was fresh out of a scheme (for non comp sci students, so was slow but that’s understandable)

I ended up working overtime into burn out to get the project through the door (and hit issues due the architect should’ve informed us of). It would’ve honestly been easier as just me, one other developer, and a BA

I know we can have multiple accounts (and I am sure apps will help the experience), but I almost signed up for Beehaw as it was big and chose here

I am glad I didn’t sign up and will probably unsubscribe to anything I was subbed to there as I can’t post, maybe I’ll signup so I can just in case there’s anything interesting…

Wow I almost joined yeehaw instead of here… They seem too quick to block other instances

It’s not a surprise people joined those instances – yeehaw required approval. To many people that means “wait 24 hours” so they went elsewhere
