One of our engineers: Unbelievably helpful, all the time, to several dozen people. I have no idea how you find the time, but for someone in your position to respond to messages to request for any help is an achievement in itself.

One of our managers: I've worked with you for 3 years, and I have absolutely no idea what to do day-to-day. I also have no idea how you're still in a job. I'm not the only person either.

you can write reviews for your coworkers on linkedin.

[-] davel@lemmy.ml 26 points 1 day ago

The problem with a Yelp for coworkers is that some coworkers are corporate stooges with no class consciousness, so their reviews are worthless. The toxic positivity of some LinkedIn bootlickers is a good example.

Fav: 5/5 super smart, great memory, always willing to help. Treats you with human kindness and consideration. Covers for you when you need it and makes sure to give constructive feedback.

Worst: 1/5 Talks and talks and talks endlessly without respect for other people’s time nor his own. Repeats the same thing in 5 different ways and never fails to dominate the conversation and not let anyone speak. When he does let you speak he doesn’t understand what you say unless he asks a question. Example: Me: “If you push this button it will do x.” Him: “I don’t get it, so what does this button do?” Me: “It does x.” Him: “Oh now I get it.” Me: slams hand on forehead All the above plus a long list of other similar issues. He is the team lead and even his ideas are awful, sometimes they’re good, but many times they are bad to worse.

Gary in Accounting - 3.2/5 Stars - "He can't read emails for shit, but he'll occasionally bring in donuts for everyone"

emails

Please recuse yourself from this case, Judge.

Email has become synonymous with the message itself rather than the service, so it gets plutalized a lot; like I read a letter, or lots of letters today

Dennis from Sales: 5/5. Smarmy, arrogant git with no concept of how anything works, but his wife is great in the sack.

5/5 thick french accent but most genuine conversations I've had in like 5 years at work. Sad he's gone now, but will discuss Stromae on the clock again when he visits.

Eats crunchy foods (celery, carrots, etc) in shared office every day for lunch. Loudly.

I love crunchy veggies. Is this why everyone in the office hated me?
