$20k+ raise. More meetings. Very minimal actual coding. Just tons of pointless meetings. Please don't congratulate me. I still fucking hate managing coders.

Cannot imagine endless meetings is worth only a $20k bump (assuming you mean at a new company.) Sounds like a nightmare. Much prefer you hold out until you find the sinecure you're looking for.

cr. wasted time is wasted time. wasted time in camera-on meetings is extremely awful, though.

it's much easier to take on two (or more!) menial jobs than management in any one, even at comparable salaries.

lol'd reading this. TBH I try to keep poasters at virtual arms-length when I come to XO. So I tend to not really keep up with the beefs (justified or otherwise.)

There is no "beef." This guy is just some mentally ill oddball who poasts insane shit and accuses at least half of the bort of being involved in a murderous, pedophilic conspiracy against him.

You realize that is backspace / jafar tp, right? Meaning one of the strongest RAW INTELLECTUAL HORSEPOWER poasters on the bort in the late 2010s / early 2020s. He had an obvious schizophrenic break a couple years ago (not shtick) and he’s been reduced to this. The moar you know.

Those sorts of promotions are such a GC scam. I got “promoted” to a new more stressful role with zero comp adjustment, just vague promises that it would come. It’s been a couple of years, a couple of reorgs, and (amazingly) a couple of GCs since then. Thankfully I managed to offload the most stressful aspects in the last of those reorgs because it was clear I was never gonna get anything for it.
