The new one I thought would be an awesome job. Remote, more pay, nice people so I thought. They lied to me in the interview. I am a System Admin. I do not do developer code. I don't have a clue about programming other than PowerShell. At this point in my career, I won't either. I don't have the mindset to sit there and program. I do Windows Servers, VMWARE, Enterprise SAN networks and storage, replication, Cisco UCS, etc. First day in, no NEO (new employee orientation). They just sent you training to do and paperwork to fill out. Next day, I finished the training, and got on the phone with the engineer that would be showing me the training. He gave me a crash course basically what I'd be doing.
Basically, its a sh*t show. They fired everyone back in 2016, then figured out they screwed up, the company they outsourced things too screwed up the environment so bad, that all the new people (less than a year), now have to rebuild it from scratch. And have this done by the end of the year. Okay, we can give it a whirl, not a problem. But then, he said, you need to learn coding, as we need a developer. I told them I didn't do programming in my interview. I told them again, and he said, you don;t have a choice on this, you will. Go buy some books and learn it. I told them I am not buying the books nor am I paying for $300 to put a piece of software on my work laptop to allow me to run vmware virtual machines. They won't pay for it. Two people will be doing a lot of the rebuild for 3000 servers.
That ended it. The next morning, I got on, and quit. I was like, this is not worth it, and the amount of crap you are going to force everyone to do in a limited amount of time is ridiculous because of the company screw up.
Plenty more good jobs out there, and I had another offer, and pursuing it now with the recruiter.
