It was a great offense to her if somebody came in so much as five minutes late.  Despite being the managing developer for the team, and hence, ultimately responsible for all the engineering work that happened, I refused to care, so long as the work was getting done.  I had a great team of talented guys that were always down to knock out a problem, whatever the problem was.&lt;p&gt;My boss wouldn&apos;t see the hours they put in working from home (&quot;How do I know they&apos;re &lt;i&gt;working&lt;/i&gt; if I can&apos;t see them!?!?&quot;), or the hours they stayed late when the work wasn&apos;t done.&lt;p&gt;I tried the age old arguments &quot;So long as the work is getting done...&quot; or &quot;They can come and go whenever they want so long as I&apos;m meeting deadlines...&quot; etc., but none of it flew.  I regret not trying harder to change the culture before ultimately giving up and going somewhere that &apos;got it&apos;.  As a result, I have less responsibility, work from home, work more than I used to, and am happier to do so.  I also can&apos;t imagine giving up the team that I have now for any reason, and I honestly think they feel similarly.&lt;p&gt;I usually poo-poo all over &apos;company culture&apos; lectures, but this one completely hits the nail on the head as far as I&apos;m concerned.</text><parent_chain></parent_chain></comment><story><title>The Product is the Byproduct</title><url>http://zachholman.com/talk/product-is-the-byproduct</url></story>
