  • Like I said, I don’t know the full context of OP’s situation—I just wanted to offer another possible explanation, which may or may not apply to them.

    I’ve come across similar comments from people who are convinced they’re facing discrimination, but when you take a closer look at the facts, it’s not always so clear-cut. For example, I once saw someone say they always get rejected from jobs, often instantly, and were certain it was because of the photo on their résumé. But when you actually read their CV and look at the roles they applied for, it turned out they didn’t meet any of the listed requirements. Having two years of bootcamp experience won’t typically land you a role at a startup asking for four years in a specific tech stack.

    If you always assume you’re a victim, it can prevent you from growing and might lead you to overlook areas where you could improve.

    Again, I’m not denying that discrimination exists or saying OP is imagining things—I just think it’s important to consider all angles.



  • When I started working for my current company there were really few meetings and I didn’t know that it was possible. Everywhere I worked we had all the Scrum meetings and tech discussions meetings. At that time it was relatively a small company but not that small.

    Now the company is getting bigger and some persons try to bring all the scrum shit. Even for small features, we do meetings to discuss them and last for hours. Some meetings have a big agenda that we always only tackle half of it. Sometimes we decide to do something with big impact and then someone suggests to include a person from another that doesn’t even know our scope. And then we get “maybe we shouldn’t do this as it will maybe have some negative impacts”, “maybe we should add an exception” without even giving data to support their claim.
