Incompetence from middle managers and technical architects - Technical Director DevFactory Employee Review

Each week I'm working on specs for different products, businesses and tech stacks. Always interesting and always new. Never have to think about cost or business factors when making decisions. I'm coached to always look for the simplest technical solution. This is liberating and and allows for clear focus.

Tough to move up to the next level. Everyone on the team is super talented which makes it difficult to stand out.

Best practices in software industry like SCRUM, Build Processes, Code Reviews, Performance Matrix, flexible timings as far as you can commit 30+ hours pw.

The job comes with running a software that takes picture of your desktop current windows every 10 mins as well as detects keyboard and mouse movement to guess if you are not there or idol. So you have to be active all the time on the computer, even if you are thinking about an algorithm architecture or whatever, make sure to throw in few keys or move your mouse after couple of mins
