#employer is on a new kick - greatly accelerated product cycles. Efficiency improvement, LEAN, AGILE, KANBAN, and a bunch of other new buzzwords and acronymns. Lots and lots of mid-level VPs attending lots and lots of seminars in warm sunny locations, generating lots and lots of training materials and blog posts, lots and lots of jockeying among the said execs to show who is supporting the new paradigm, how soon, how much, and can show results, like, yesterday.
Actual bottom line: work more, slaves!
