her job was to be blamed for all the bad things. she was always going to be fired. most of the people in this admin are there to be blamed and then fired. trump uses all his employees that way. the first trump administration was the same.

the best devops person i have ever worked with by far, mind you
one of those "pay this person literally whatever he asks for" kind of people
he quit shortly after that, because who wouldn't :/

the dude literally forced us to replace our entire ci/cd pipeline with some trash that had never worked DAYS before we were supposed to release a greenfield project lmao
he then blamed the completely-predicted-by-every-engineer chaos on the devops guy who wrote the pipeline he forced us to replace

i more or less lost any meaningful ability to make decisions, because my decisions generally aligned with listening to the other engineers instead of hiring more of his friends, and i was about to become his next patsy for the problems he was directly creating, so i left too

he was the ceo's buddy and basically lied and manipulated constantly and slowly replaced everyone who raised concerns (the competent people) with a cheap contractor who he was probably getting a cut from
this of course crushed morale and then everyone else couldn't leave fast enough

i had to add 200 lines of boilerplate redux code to a PR because what i wrote "wasn't scaleable" and now as a follow up to that i am being asked to write another 100 or so lines of code to manage the complexity introduced by all the redux crap lmao
software engineers are broken
