Hahaha, ok, well....I just wanted to come back and thank the Good Samaritan that reported me for my “slur or offensive stereotype”, whichever that was in my poem about Jack. Eeesh, tough crowd....

Funny part is Jack really is a client I deal with, and he’s really not a very nice person at all. He yells at his staff, our staff, anyone in earshot really, so not an offensive stereotype. Just facts and on topic for this thread.

Anyway, thanks for listening...I’ll go check out the “Unprofessional Topics” bowl I guess because this one is only for canonized saints. ✌️

I've worked at the same engineering firm for 4 years. I'm currently making $161k with only a $750 bonus, but excellent vacation (4 weeks, cash out anytime, rolls over indefinitely), 45 hours a week.

Partners or whomever can help me understand about billing and hours. To keep things simple, let’s say you only have one staff to work 1,700 billable hours a year on a $60k salary and you have only one job that and the rate charged to the client is $300/hour and an projected hours budget of 1,700 hours. So ideally you would have revenue of $510k. If the staff takes less time partners make less money and if they take more time partners make more money while the staff keeps the same salary?

I’m new to this startup and was leading a cross functional project involving several other product teams with dependencies. When we got near the end with E2E testing, I realized that none of the product teams really do QA: no test scripts, not logs of dev unit testing, no documentation of testing cycles – there devs asked “what do we do about edge cases?” I raised this to my boss (since I don’t manage those other teams) and he said I’m creating unnecessary stress for the teams. Is he right?
