I was a Team Lead over the years. My biggest difficulty was non-support from my manager, directors, and VPs. We were stuck using tools that didn't work, and there was no funding to fix them or get better ones. Processes were stupidly designed, and nobody wanted to improve them. Great ideas are all shot down. Even cheap ideas are shot down. But we can cut thousands of jobs, fund a Mclaren race team, get g2 a $200k watch, etc.
Bumped from @mr+1kt16ne3e.
Everything was bad but you stayed any way? What made you think it was going to get better? I am guessing that you were paid way more than you were worth so you just stuck around because you weren't going to find another job that paid as well.
Think of it as your opportunity to do more with less. /s
Whinners exit left.
@OP because most are nontechnical.
lol my prev manager would say im always available to assist, when I asked are you available for sync call i was immediately redirected to "check my calendar" to schedule a meeting but I would always get impromptu calls.
LOL that sounds like my manager. Absolutely zero support on anything. Just doing stuff for the sake of them looking good. But they don’t ever actually follow through with most of what they say.
