Ask HN: New Job Poor Fit, Can't Make Immediate Jump

3 点作者 Scalanchilis大约 8 年前
I took a new job about six months ago and am into my second project with them. Unfortunately, it has turned out to be a colossally bad fit. My job responsibilities have turned out to be closer to business analyst and assistant project manager than software engineer (but paid a senior software engineer salary). Their agile work style has turned out to be heavily bureaucratic, full of long meetings, documentation I am constantly being asked to generate, and just overall unpleasantness; I scarcely ever write a single line of code on the job. This did not match expectations based on the interview nor based on the experience listed on my résumé.<p>This is a remote position, and for various personal reasons, I am looking to relocate, a process that would take a few months and coordination with my S.O., and so am not interested in taking a local job in this mid-sized city. Good remote positions have been difficult to find. Financially, quitting in the interim is also not an option.<p>I am at odds trying to figure out a good way to handle this situation.

Hi, fellow remote worker here. I am in somewhat the same boat, as I&#x27;m not really working on large scale software projects, more just plumbing for our frontend devs (I am a backend developer for a design company). As a result I often find myself creating my own priorities and requirements, which can relieve some of the boredom.<p>If you have the opportunity and the clout you could suggest new tech or new processes that might help alleviate some of the pain points you&#x27;re feeling. It&#x27;s at least worth a shot. You might end up getting to do some new dev work as a result.

Starting a side project might help unless this is a more than 8 hours a day job, which I&#x27;ve had and side projects are impossible working 120 hours a week. But if its a normal 40 hour workweek remote that gives you some extra time to do a neat side project which could lead you to being on the indie hackers&#x27; site listing.
