Tech Vs. Business?

Posted by kdawson on from the two-towers dept.

An anonymous reader writes "I've recently found a spot in a large company, and I'm noticing that here a lot of people on the technology side are very anti-business. Tech makes up about 40% of the total line of business staff, but the whole LOB is only a tiny percentage of the larger company in the financial industry. I personally haven't seen this before in prior jobs, but I'm told that this animosity is commonplace. So I come to Slashdot to find out if others have experienced this adversarial relationship between business and tech, and if so, what was the effect on the overall success of the business?"

    "Their, their, their."

    For the love of all that's holy, learn some fucking grammar!

    Like starting sentences with capital letters, ending them with full stops and how to use commas. Fixed that for you, fuckwit.
