Yep. If there is any company that knows what it takes to drive inefficiencies, it's Atlassian. (Fuck them and their software.)
How many of those 8 hours are because bit bucket is down? I'd bet at least 1. I swear their uptime is measured in 8s instead of 9s (as in 88.88, not 99.88)
Now imagine solving that and becoming 25% more efficient, but still getting the same wage. (historically, the leadership rakes in all the profits without sharing when efficiency increases)
I'd rather be chill and blame some third party. Hail Atlassian.
Or, continue delivering at the same rate and spend 25% more time just chillin'
I’d rather be chill and blame some third party.
