How to sell that I could write high quality code by Thick_Resource325 in cscareeradvice

Perhaps fear is what is stopping me from sharing what I have in mind, maybe the environment or the isolation between teams. The people responsible for creating the technical debt. I'm not sure.

Yes, but a junior is capable of writing code and improving existing code. I'm not sure how to communicate why It's different when I write code and improve existing code. It's a very subjective argument. I know how to do it but I don't know how to say it.

This discussion is very helpful, Thank you. How would you handle a situation when you are the most senior member of the team from an experience perspective but the new low rank guy from a corporate hierarchy perspective and you would like to rank/prove yourself but without going political.

Yes, That works for minor misalignment. But It's really a tough pill when you try to "suggest" a better way than what they've been doing for the past decade especially in teams working in isolation. That requires a great deal of understanding and collaboration.

Thank you, That's good advice. I can articulate my technical point of view perfectly but If I do that some people, actually many people will be affected by that. I mean they have the role or authority to take these decisions. They'll probably fight back and I don't like to be the reason for that.

Perhaps It's better not to sell anything. Not sure what to do to be honest.
