  • This is bullshit. There are many people hired with the job title “Software Engineer” who don’t sit and generate code, and for a number of reasons.

    You could be on a hybrid team that does projects and support, so you spend 80% of your time attending meetings, working tickets, working with users, and shuffling paper in whatever asinine change management process your company happens to use.

    I have worked places where “engineers” ended up having to spend most of their time dicking around in ServiceNow/Remedy/etc. instead of doing their actual jobs. That’s shitty business process design and shitty management, and not a reflection of the employee doing nothing.
