“One person is aware of almost 100k/mo in unnecessary spend on AWS. They don’t bother to care about it or fix it. They reason that they’ll be punished for fixing it by having to JIRA the issue, bring it into the sprint, discuss it in standup, and not be rewarded with any fraction of those savings financially. Worse yet, it may take longer than expected to fix and they may be punished for it on their performance review. They’ve known about this issue for almost eight months.”

You’re going to get a raise below inflation. You’re stupid for caring the way that you do. The business’ downside risk is not yours, and it’s profits are not yours either.”
