#131 - From Hired to Fired! Avoid these 2 developer career death traps
As an engineering manager I've had the privilege of promoting engineers on my team and offering people their first role in tech. It's one of the most rewarding parts of the job. Besides all the meetings of course... that's the icing on the cake 😉.
Unfortunately, I've also had the not so fun task of promoting people OUT of the team 😬. I've also spoken to a few junior developers who finally landed their first role.... then got fired.
We will explore the top 2 reasons I've seen people get canned and what you can do to avoid this unfortunate scenario.
