Yes, the first week I was employed, I made note of gaps I thought existed, among them Agile, he did not shoot it down, but seemed not interested to seek to convince changing company policies, which I agreed with. However, I also noted we do not use any bug / version tracking application (I setup JIRA/Confluence for documentation, showed it's merits), this DID NOT need \ policy change, he actively shot it down. This could have cleared these disagreements, but he actively does not get involved in using it. | |

If he rejects the idea, well you will then have no choice but to work under that style of management. I would look for a new job. Also, what type of company is it...start up, corporate etc? | |
| Jul 1, 2016 at 10:47 | comment | added | Pilling Fine | You express the issue in better words than I did. As a young employee, i favor the modern methods, the company policies favor the more rigid ones though, this is what's just there and the reputation is old and proven by the owners for their clients. I always adhere to company policy or the document thus, since its what the company's risk and guarantee is measured on. Yet he puts pressure on us, without documenting it (essentially exposing us), instead of advocating the change at company level, and having us benefit from Agile/Scrum/Code&Test etc, with the company's blessing too. Thank you. | |
