1. \n

   My company is a startup and they\u2019re super unorganized. I\u2019m a junior-mid level engineer, and when I was onboarded, there was no documentation for how to run anything. I wrote a bunch of documentation and also made some PR templates to try and organize PRs. I\u2019m super annoyed because things are constantly being messed with in our schema, and I don\u2019t realize what we\u2019ve changed until it correlates to a different issue that I\u2019m trying to fix and then have to redo the fix because there\u2019s this new change. What can I do to help my company?

2. \n

   I\u2019m a lead engineer at a small but growing startup. I work primarily on skunkworks projects. My teammate and I are feeling constantly underwhelmed by the performance of the rest of the engineering team, who are working on the core app. Their work causes limitation for us, makes the engineering team look ill-equipped, and we cant seem to make old dogs learn new tricks.\nHow do we make it more apparent to the team, and the rest of the company, that it\u2019s time to \u201clevel up\u201d the engineering domain as a whole.
