Why am I leaving? An example…
Why would I leave my job at a huge, theoretically stable company to go to a small company?
Because at the huge company there’s either no accountability or it’s all in the wrong place. Let me give you an example.
MySQL replication between 2 of our servers has been broken ALL DAY. The monitoring system is sending emails every 10 minutes. Why isn’t it fixed yet?
Because Team DBA has not created a ticket for Team Support to tell them to fix it. Everybody knows it needs to get fixed. The longer it goes on, the worse it’s going to be. Team DBA knows EXACTLY what to do - but they won’t do it because if they take action without a ticket they get in trouble.
It’s simply ridiculous. That happens here constantly. That’s why I’m leaving.
