Too right, cunt.
Not really living up to that one lads, considering your software is an absolute raging dumpster-fire
My experience is that dev's have...mixed feelings about it because it can get in the way of "actual work" but only a few of those dev's are as good and organised as they think they are. The rest it's like herding cats and without Jira or an equivalent they'd be churning out dogshit.
Huh. As a customer, this is surprising.
Correct - I can think of, for example, a national ASX listed ISP (Aussie Broadband) with the word bullshit in their core values - "No Bullshit": https://www.aussiebroadband.com.au/forms/investors/statement...
- Do not hit or scold customers.
Swearing, when used properly, punctuates an otherwise boring corporate message.
Some workplaces really are trying to be the chill pub all the way down to the beer on tap.
But you can have an environment that's "a friendly place to be where people are genuine and there's a sense of community" without that crap
I swear more than the next person but I don't want my workplace codifying it. We can leave that kind of tech-bro bs back in the 2010s.
Yes, and you can also have the environment with "that crap".
Why is one approach superior to the other, beyond the fact that it appeals to you?
It's normal.
Some other things about this article stood out to me though. The author brings up: "Interesting fact 1: Atlassian is the only company that has words "shit" and "fuck" in their core values." without the context here. These values are "Don't fuck the customer" and "Open company, no bullshit". It seems strange the author is calling out the language of values I actually feel were pretty decent. If anything this is just a reflection of word choices of Australian vs American cultures. It feels like the author is just trying to pull every gotchya out there due to a bad experience with a manager.
