@heyheni I can. I just don't know if I want to. If rest of the team don't care, why should I?
-
@bzq84 Because you're paid better, hopefully. If not, that's a good point for a raise negotiation.
-
@Fast-Nop yes, I am. Fair enough.

@bzq84 I have the same predicament, the assumption that you can train them to deliver in weeks rather than months is astonishing
Been assigned to the team by management.
Management and I both know team members are junior/early-medium levels.
Management expects outcome.
After few weeks I clearly communicated that these engineers are unreliable. I can grow and coach them, but outcomes can't be guaranteed.
I was told it's my responsibility to deliver outcome anyway.
I was told they know it's unfair - but if whole team fails, it's on me to fix everything.
And most importantly: of course IT IS NOT MANAGEMENT FAULT OF ASSEMBLING TEAM OF WEAK ENGINEERS.
... placing me there should fix it "somehow"
