As a parody on engineer/manager communication pitfalls that impact engineering productivity of electronics chip design, this video presents a humorous rendition of what goes on at "WonderChips". The video was originally aired at the DAC 2007 Productivity Impact Luncheon, sponsored by FSA and EDA Consortium, themed "Changing the Dialogue Between Engineers and Managers". Also discussed at the event was an MIT paper entitled "Nobody Ever Gets Credit for Fixing Problems That Never Happened: Creating and Sustaining Process Improvement". If you're serious or curious about engineering productivity, watch the video and read the paper (available at http://web.mit.edu/nelsonr/www...

I agree, they don't know how much excruciating technical analysis, design and testing engineers go through. why, I remember designing a simple rotating steel shaft last semester, my brain was fried by the end of it XD

Hardly a parody. It's pathetically accurate. "Looks like I'm not going to see much of my kids this summer" - she says, resigned to it being inevitable. And somehow that is expected of her. I like jradetsky's comment: work sucks. And it does.

What I want to know is: how you taped the meetings of the past companies I've worked for. This was soooo dead on. Great job. Anybody want to lend me a Cessna?

@cr1ticalvoid to make things worse, management never really understand what engineers works are. unless on rare occasions the manager is an engineer,

I noticed that there was no swearing in this video, a meeting between managers and engineers in my work usually ends in a lot of swearing

Great video. Reminds of some of the comments of Nassim Nicholas Taleb.The hyperlink has a parentheses and full stop - but paper is very interesting.Thanks.
