This reminds me of a company where they wanted to put me at 100% contribution after 2 weeks. I just told them “I can’t contribute as fast as seniors so they will just have to do more work to hit your burndown charts”

There were multiple red flags so I only lasted 2 months

Should include metrics.

I worked for a BI company where metrics was only for the CTO, not the deveolpers.

The screen on the wall for the cloud team was showing the build status of another teams project.

And anytime there was a problem, it wasn’t known to the team, until the CTO came to the team because someone had complained to him.

Both interperting and creating useful dashboards should be part of any team.

Seems like a low risk test, it’s kinda a no-brainer. They used their free time and they had it running alongside the main program. Have to remember if they didn’t have the comparison, I don’t think it would be as good a story.
