As a manager or even a technical leader, your head IS on the line, it just might not seem so obvious.

Rollout delays, customer debacles, etc all shape your image to promo panels.

If you’re just a junior engineer, it’s not like it will be held against you, but you certainly missed an opportunity to demonstrate ownership and make a name for yourself as one of the 1 in 20 people who aren’t NPCs.

Depends on a company where you work. At our org you’ll get nothing out of it but headache, salary doesn’t change either way.
