What questions do you wish you had asked before starting a new role? /u/cougaranddark CSCQ protests reddit

I have a second round interview coming up. I have lots of questions I can think of that I wish I had asked before accepting my last roles….but every job provides different hindsight for different people, so I’d love to hear what others can think of. Here’s some of what I have so far:

– Can you tell me about a time when there was disagreement over a change request on a PR, and how it was handled?
– Can you think of a time when someone new wasn’t asking enough questions, or was asking too many? How did you provide the knowledge sharing they needed in a way that worked for your team?
– Does your coding environment provide automatic linting, or do you work out issues with formatting via change requests on PRs? If not automated, do you have a style guide that acts as a reliable reference?
– What is the process to introduce new tech into your stack?
