  2. Re:Run, don't walk. on Ask Slashdot: Standard Software Development Environments? · · Score: -1

    I wholeheartedly agree with you, but at one engagement of mine any kind of process improvement was met with hostility as the in-breds were paid handsomely for the overtime to fix the same old problems that occurred night-in, night-out.

    They deliberately never fixed the root cause of the overnight problems, they just fixed the wonky data, restarted the relevant services and waited until the next evening and more overtime.

    I only got the green light to improve things when there was a change of management. Needless to say, I didn't get invited to any social events after that.

    Not only this, the first time there's a fuck-up, you'll get the blame as you're the newcomer.

    "going to go after" - as if this hasn't already happened? Don't forget the London and Madrid bombings which (very successfully) hit trains, underground and buses.
