    Why do you work for companies who are clearly beneath your level of competency? Commented Sep 8, 2011 at 14:05

    @Brian, I appreciate the ego stroke, but without more people thinking like me then these companies will never rise above. This is the first time I am in an actual position of power, as I developed a modest amount of political importance for once. I have a real opportunity here to direct resources to make things better. I haven't found a company yet that is perfect without any need for work. It is like the perfect husband or wife, they don't just come along, a good enough person comes along and then you change them into what you want them to be ;) Commented Sep 8, 2011 at 14:20

    I think we might work for the same team. Now you (and I) know how to actually go about asking questions during our next interviews. (Actually, my environment has nowhere near 100% or even 10% integration test coverage [true unit tests? that's crazy talk!], but you've nailed all of the other points I'm dealing with.)
