Quit in 2012 to the end of December a new company, the new company in the People's Square, Beijing East Road, the piece, but also small companies. But the former company, the new company was founded, there is no stable source of income, everything is new, from scratch. In March this year, and I still go back to old colleagues once, looked at the company's office points found in this building, many companies have moved away, basically empty out, was nonhuman.
First, six months ago
The first half of this technology is responsible for my friend, who in order to save costs, recruit several interns, and the client only recruit the Android development, testing is also behind the move, pre-only development, there is no product manager, the company's overall the technical team is still relatively weak. The company's main business is to do carpool, similar to the current car and drops ride.
1）PHP
Here development language used is PHP, but also from here, I give up C #, I began to switch to PHP development. Basically through language, to see grammar, not a few days to get started, and colleagues began to develop business logic. As a novice PHP, write code is very ugly, in order to speed up the development speed, picked a CI framework. Person in charge of the development of PHP on two, me and another intern, we need to be responsible for the development of the background, but also responsible for developing the PC side, as well as the client interface. Three times the amount of work the client, but staffing is less than the client, which led to client interfaces are often too late to give. Followed by another recruit a PHP, slowly began to improve.
2) Map
Carpool map service will be used to select start and end points, and select the best lines. At that time the choices are Baidu map, Baidu provides an open third-party JavaScript script, I started learning to use a third-party API at that time. Was a front-end rookie, some asynchronous operation can not tell, synchronized with the old wording, often fail to get the correct data, back slowly study, which found the opportunities. At that time motivated, and often stay up until ten o'clock at night to go, we have been studying the use of the map. Unfortunately, no research was to record, did not use a lot of code that did not leave.
3) shake-up
Followed by another after another come in new colleagues, going up to the time of the first delivery, but the system has not decent shape, had to work overtime to do. I was quite far away from home, there is a period of time living in the direct vicinity of the hotel, plus complete classes in the evening back to the hotel. He delivered the night before, I and two other colleagues debugging overnight one night, the next day barely able to demonstrate. Several shareholders after watching the finished product, he said he was very dissatisfied, far from their expectations. They want to imitate our website and the same functionality, but we give it is a very simple prototype. Shareholders who want the software development too simple, that people arrived, the product will be able to come out. We are a newly formed team, nothing, all from scratch, but we can say that few people are novice, the client is not originally made for Android, PHP back-end is a novice, there is no detailed project planning, new the team also need to run-in period, in short, there are a lot of problems. The end result is my friend decentralization, re looking for someone from the outside to manage the team.
Second, after six months
Soon, instead of the people came, he first laid off several clients who then recruited a design, iOS and operation and maintenance, replace the original CI framework in favor of ZF frame. The new man in charge came, obvious change is money to burn fast. Shareholders are requested to him three months to complete to mimic the function.
1) Daily
New head to the future requires us to write newspaper every day, and then sent him. Also a meeting every day, today described problems encountered, the cost of meeting behind too high, they canceled the meeting, continue to issue daily. We have not affected the first half, the enthusiasm is still very high, still hard at work every day with.
2) Project Management
But project management is still a bit confusing, behind his words that he liked the backyard, not bound by everyone. But because there is no immediate feedback, doing his project appeared on the bias, and no prototyping, rely on a mouth demand, the situation often wrangling, some features are not quite that simple, get to the bottom you will find it very complex. To be on such IM systems, need to be able to upload voice, image and text, the client colleagues took the time to complete the basic functions, the back end we have to consider how to save the data. There is a wallet function, shareholders want the user to put money into the account, the company can have a cash pool, good idea, but the finance function very tight, the amount of error can not appear to realize it is very strenuous. Three months soon arrived, went to the demonstration when the halfway cut a lot of time to develop complex needs, they only completed carpool business, shareholders are not very satisfied. This project is a good line to go Shennongjia travel by car, and later changed to the Mountains in Dongtou Island.
3) Travel
People often say is responsible for one sentence: "ugly wife still wanted to see her in-laws." Our products are finally on the line, did not reach expectations, but whatever the outcome, be used, on the line, or a little amount of users. A few days later, my co-workers a pedestrian was opened three cars starting to travel, and the only one trip before the dissolution of the company. Play is still pretty happy, sitting in the car is the car a little longer, one day before nine at night to the destination, and then have dinner, or very hard.
4) Dissolution
Major shareholders do not see the delay in the effectiveness of the abolition of the investment. After the divestment, several other shareholders of the company would like to open up new business, similar to the US group takeaway, but is sent to the designated goods, but did not make it. After finally in December 2013, the company has laid off two groups of employees, thoroughly dissolved, we have got the corresponding compensation payments, a one-year venture ended in failure.
This year there are many aspects of the harvest, not just programming, as well as project management, product design, teamwork and others have new insights.
Third, in 2014
This year is relatively dim year, I changed three companies, this is actually a very good case, change jobs too frequently, but also forced to do this.
This is my internships and part of that company, and then the boss has been linked, he wants to help me in the past, but I always declined. Behind the dissolution of the company, and we arranged to go to another company, we do not want to go, on all self-seeking way out.
1) Interview
No suitable place, which went to a travel company. At that time the situation is different, I took the initiative in the past, the boss attitude is high, and began to wage pressure, replaced now I am sure that once was gone. But that time was starting a new job, experience is not enough, there is no suitable place to go, he did not spade, and low wages, but promised to give me a bonus. So next Monday officially go to work, time to find another company for a wave of people, private norm, staff mobility is very large.
2) access disk
The company recruited a development, and that old gang of poor health, his own salary is very low, abilities, a little difficult to get along with other colleagues, which makes the company's views on his colleagues more and more, I came back later, the boss simply cut him. In fact, he did not write much code, behind me are reconstructed. The company also changed the design of a wave of people, but still there is no problem with it. At this point, regained the C # language, development and leaving me alone. During this time gradually formed its own set of page development model, the first to write static pages, bring data requests until after confirmation page, and then change the dynamic pages. Usually a part-time weekend doing outdoor leadership, with members go hiking, this is very interesting, accommodation is a bit poor, but still can not take a bath after a sweat.
3) Wages
The company tourism season is beginning in September, the month will be nothing other income, which directly led to cash flow break. During this time there are about three or four months no wages, very tough. This time I carpool company that a friend came to me and said he was a lack of people there, let me come and help. Wages think here, go back and talk about the boss, the boss said at the time:. "I put you as a brother, you take me boss, no money and I said, I will give you," I'm pretty speechless, after consultations behind, part-time again promised to maintain the website. In addition to wages, there is another important reason is that the atmosphere here is not developed, it is difficult in this environment to enhance the technical level of the previous year as well as teamwork, this year has turned out to man combat, a kind of regressive feel. However, the level of business actually improved the lot, also for outdoor hiking a lot about each led out, people thought I was a master, in fact, I just wanted to take care of a few individuals only.
Fourth, financial companies
My friend over there is the home of entrepreneurial finance company, engage in options or something, I did not leave time to get to know this is the clitoris. This is also the start-up companies, rented a house as office, a dozen employees, hired a dedicated aunt burned lunch and dinner, but you want to eat at their own expense, the company does not board. Also at this time, I started to write a blog, and the average monthly write eighty-nine.
The usual lunch break, we would like to browse gang in the villa area, are luxury cars, the house next door also raised purebred husky four, each said to be the 100W.
1) Team Configuration
The team configuration different from the past, have designed, tested, and back-end client, the client here is the development of a C ++, for the computer, not the phone. There is a person to develop a set of systems with C #, by him to provide an interface of each function, and I am here is to be in charge of the site, some basic user information management, and related financial operations can only run on the client. I heard back ownership of the system belongs to the people, he sold the system to make a lot of money, but here is the relationship, not the source code to provide it.
2) Overtime
In the summer, there is a boss wants to speed up development time, shorten the construction period, I live quite far, no way to live directly in the company, there are about three weeks, while classes plus weekend sometimes. At a specified time to complete the task successfully, but I did not slow website on-line. My friend and I say this very promising, the boss has to give you yourselves, what I said stupefied, but the departure of co-workers one by one, not to say that good. The feeling behind the boss do not fly, and the project management team also has problems (I refer to a previous " most a reflection of recent projects "), thinking about gone. Just to have a friend over there to recruit people, they contacted me, so in October and I would jump ship.
