I had no idea enterprises could take upto 2 weeks to help setup a dev environment!
I assume it's things like waiting on being given access, time to read internal docs/best practices/etc., time for internal training on things like unconscious bias, things like that?
Yeah, that does seem excessive. I mean, it does all depend on how complicated the entire setup is, but if it takes 2 weeks, then it's surely a sign that something is wrong with the whole stack (e.g. too many sites/services marked as essential) or the setup process itself (too many stakeholders resulting in more time for all requests for access, etc).
A few days seems more reasonable. It allows for a bit of time to read through onboarding documents and set things up on a machine (unless it's a junior position, then some things might already be set up to help them along).
For further actions, you may consider blocking this person and/or reporting abuse
We're a place where coders share, stay up-to-date and grow their careers.
