Giant Robots Smashing Into Other Giant Robots 630: What does engineering culture even mean?
Chad and Sami are both on the thoughtbot couch this week (sporting various levels of thoughtbot representation), ready and raring to reminisce about their previous work experience to determine - what, exactly, is an ‘engineering culture’, and what does that even mean?!
From former bosses that liked to scream, to trusting each other's best judgement, the boys dive deep for the sake of their latest project to try and untangle both the true definition of the phrase, and how to measure the metrics of its success.
