Patrick McKenzie added,
It goes without saying that they're handling new employee relations about as poorly as they're doing the technical stuff, but Twitter, so <-
But this is a positive, optimistic Twitter account, so let's go over the actionable remediations here:
1) You don't have production DB credentials lying around in documentation. You keep those in an encrypted credential store.
2) If your organization is mature enough to have junior developers, you're mature enough to not have production connected to dev boxes.
It should be impossible at the network layer for a junior dev to connect to the production environment (perhaps "absent some ceremony").
3) You have a mature incident response plan. If your production database goes away, your CTO either is or is deferring to incident manager.
4) You trained the junior employee on incident response procedures, probably on day 1~5. They understand that company doesn't blame people.
5) If a junior employee exercises reasonable fear of losing their job when causing an incident, you reply "Not happening; we'll talk later."
6) Your training for junior employees (you have training for them) covered company confidentiality and PR procedures.
