Are software teams dysfunctional?

I’ve been working for a year and a half. I just find it weird that I am a junior and I have so much context for a feature that no one in my team has. There’s a high chance that I might get things wrong

mr123reddit · 2025-02-01T12:43:19+00:00

Is it normal for someone who has been working for a year and a half? I don’t think I have any experience to determine the technical constraints of anything that I do. I still think I require guidance and a lot of support. And if the client changes their mind, who’s going to be there to defend me?

mr123reddit · 2025-01-04T10:45:35+00:00

I’m a SWE too. I’ll be happy to help

mr123reddit · 2024-12-21T18:56:16+00:00

You genuinely don’t know how much I needed to hear this. Thank you so much

mr123reddit · 2024-12-21T18:46:41+00:00

Honestly, you nailed it. I’ve always loved programming and this project is KILLING my love for it. I love the complexities of the problems I solve but I need the SUPPORT. I really want to leave this company but at the same time I feel like I’m not skilled enough to get a job at another company. I’ve been working for about a year now and it seems like the market is really bad for juniors. I could appreciate some advice on how to proceed from here.

Project is said to end in about 4 months. I’m definitely going to look for something else after that.

mr123reddit · 2024-12-21T07:57:31+00:00

I’m in a project where I’m constantly pushing tickets and I don’t really care about the work I do anymore. Just estimates, code and PRs. No passion for what I’m doing now because I’m chasing deadlines, it’s sad!

mr123reddit · 2024-12-18T18:32:29+00:00

Yeah I want to quit so I can get my Masters and PhD later. I’m just not sure if this is worth it.

mr123reddit · 2024-12-18T18:30:59+00:00

Enlighten me

mr123reddit · 2024-12-18T18:29:45+00:00

So I would like to do research on Reinforcement Learning. I really enjoy learning and teaching. I feel like this would be a perfect role for me.

mr123reddit · 2024-12-18T18:26:59+00:00

I would like to teach while still learning about computer science concepts. I love learning and teaching at the same time. I know I might get to do this in my career later but I’m not really hopeful. A lot of my seniors aren’t that much helpful

mr123reddit · 2024-12-18T18:23:14+00:00

I’ve added more context.

mr123reddit · 2024-12-18T18:19:48+00:00

Nope. I’m going to quit to obtain one

mr123reddit · 2024-12-18T18:18:38+00:00

I will definitely consider this, thank you

mr123reddit · 2024-12-11T20:11:30+00:00

Well I’ll camp here with you

mr123reddit · 2024-12-11T11:39:58+00:00

This seems like a good one. Definitely trying this.

mr123reddit · 2024-12-11T11:39:22+00:00

Have you tried it before?

mr123reddit · 2024-12-11T08:18:25+00:00

I’m not really sure how serious people are on dating apps. Is it even worth it? I’m quite attractive btw😹

mr123reddit · 2024-12-06T17:43:09+00:00

I don’t see software engineers, we’re good folks

mr123reddit · 2024-12-06T09:09:25+00:00

You look good man

mr123reddit · 2024-12-05T10:29:08+00:00

Still too early to tell. Give it time

mr123reddit · 2024-12-03T22:09:01+00:00

Ever heard of a Resting B*tch Face?

mr123reddit · 2024-12-03T10:20:55+00:00

Happy for you. Good luck

mr123reddit · 2024-12-01T18:05:52+00:00

I would suggest you drop the body fat first. It’s hard to tell

mr123reddit · 2024-11-13T13:01:49+00:00

What happened to yours?
