How about you all 10x shut the hell up, I post, as I become part of the problem

I've worked with similar people but I think everyone has a place their suited to work in. That kind of person can be a great hire in a very small team where they are running the codebase, just you wouldn't want them at your fortune 500 trying to get them to care about Agile
I've worked in some small teams and I've never been in a team small enough that their problems weren't problems. Maybe if you have literally 3-4 people. But as soon as you scale to the point they need to work with others on a live consumer product, it's more bad than good imo

Yeah I'm talking about small small, like "1 programmer on backend, one on product, plus artists/product manager". i.e. startups. if your business is really small there's definitely a place for people who aren't great for team coding but do amazing solo work

Yeah, totally fair, those problems only become problems when such people brush against other people. Nobody to brush against if you have sole ownership of engineering lol

Then again we are specifically talking about the engineer described in the thread that everyone is roasting. As mentioned, I've worked with excellent engineers who were empathetic and helpful and had good social skills. + Like you said, different places work for different people
