skipdogg posted:They say why? 8. Effective Monday January 27 , we will cease doing Work From Home days. We need all of our staff and managers to be in the office so we can drive Service. I know this change will be unpopular, but it is being enacted across the board to include Incident Managers, Application Service Managers, etc. Any exception to this rule (i.e. emergencies & coverage) needs to be approved first.

This is because of the change freeze for Christmas which led to groups blowing their wads on a stream of changes in January which destroyed SLAs. Extreme self-ownage. Too bad because our director and my manager had no say in the decision.

Our executive PM thought that a data field in our application wasn’t updating, so we started a big managed incident call with 20+ people, only to find out that according to the developer that data doesn’t always update. Efficiency in action!

Our whole team used to use an barebones remote connection manager (mRemoteNG) that they got from the Indian team. Within the first 4 months of me being there I got everyone switched over to some great software we had a very expensive license for (RoyalTS). Doing so required me to learn both bash and powershell from scratch to write a script that generated a .csv file with all 700+ servers and also a couple of network monitoring tools that plugged directly into Royal. I also wrote documentation for installing everything and how to make your own scripts and customize your layout. Also put everything on our Gitlab server/Sharepoint. Tons of time spent doing repetitive tasks saved. All for a very muted response from everyone! But you bet your rear end I'm putting that poo poo on my resume.

Super Slash posted:I feel like I'm missing a beat here, we actually had licenses for RoyalTS and I rarely ever used it and much preferred mRemoteNG since it was so straight forward. It’s crazy good but there is indeed a lot of customization to do before you really get going.

They've just made it clear that all interviews are to be tele-interviews and that people will have their computers mailed to them if they are onboarded. I seriously don't know how we're going to get our new hire on-boarded given it's already a nightmare to do it in the office, let alone remotely. But at least I've still got a job so...

I was told that our office is getting bigger while they did not mention New Jersey which is under the same group as us and full of high paid senior engineers. So I think they’re getting the axe this year. Company is Refinitiv btw, I give noooo fucks. Much gnashing of teeth on thelayoff.com right now.

Sr. Engineer let slip in our stand up that he’s being moved to a contract role. So I think my theory is mostly right. Can’t wait to see what else is happening! e: So here's what's happening. if you don't work in a 'strategic office,' you get an offer you can't refuse from Tata: work for them or get canned.
