TD Engineering used to have knowledgeable technical leaders at all levels, now we have none at all. All the knowledgeable people, mover, and shakers have been RIFfed or resign on their own after trying to help. All current mgmt are yes people, political survivors, and known back stabber, or vengeful.
All engineering VPs are clueless when it comes to the current TD product. They´re either process evangelist, former software quality workers, hackathon planner, or manament executive wanna be held over from the StackIQ acquisition. All others are scared stiff, just playing the political game to survive, and are basically useless despite their past accomplishments.
We have clueless people making hiring and firing and product decisions, we are doomed in the long run and destined for failure and perpetual layoffs.
