Specific to software development: This is not a place for TDD skeptics; there are many overly sensitive people with direct and indirect control, including contractors who are not focused on the best interest for Vermeer. I was reprimanded for the littlest, trivial, things like using an objectively neutral nickname, for a thing, not a person. While claiming to have a caring culture, hypocrisy abounds, as do lies (it could just be incompetence, maybe). The Agile process is abused and tends to be used to bully instead of facilitate. A senior dev, with an uncommon coding style, was given blessing from management to unilaterally write the team and code norms, and the rest of the team was expected to agree to it as a "self organizing team". Teams do not get along, and management contributes to strife by defending the complainers against competent and hard workers. If there is any unifying goal, it is to work as slow as possible.
