In terms of naming and shaming...I think most complaints here are because people suffer tons of wrong here, suffer in silence and that's why taking to this place to let it out :/

Well I feel you, let it out if it’s valid feedback but the point is just be sensible while going about it. Don’t give people a reason to go after you irl. Examples might include posting factually untrue stuff they can easily rebut. This is different from opinions where some different groups of people might take different view, if you got something to support your view.
The thing is sometimes people let down guard posting anything they want online thinking it is anonymous, but that is totally falling into the trap. Another simple illustration, those mentimeter they use for polls, you would think it’s anonymous right? Once, someone mentioned, oh, they later discovered it was the same poster posting certain answers. To me, those answers were not even that controversial! Anyway I don’t know how or what exactly they check, but this and other incidents suggest to me that sometimes they may not focus so much on the feedback but who is the one who said it! So to repeat in case it’s not clear, the trap is giving people a reason to go after you irl.

No I am not. The OP claim there are people no deliver project but got promoted. I was wondering what depts such people might be in, as some depts don’t really have a lot of projects.
About your statement, there are TLs or even Div heads who can drill down to the implementation details or even help you with them. So can’t generalise across the board. Being better at visualising concepts (or as they like to say principle based approach) but not necessarily the operationalisation is a work trait you may find at any level, including working level. And perhaps this is not a hindrance, as they can always find out what they need by asking loads and loads of questions of others. Then, maybe, pass off the knowledge as their own. Heh

What is whose side you are on? I thought there’s only one side to be on, which is your bosses.
Promotion. Personally I think it’s unfair that some people who only has a few years of relevant experience can get promoted just from one or two shiny new project. And cos of quota squeeze out others who are arguably much smarter, far more years relevant experience and many other projects, even if they are not as shiny. If you look at past shiny projects, over the years some of the shininess have faded, or got superseded, which is why the implementation are then deprioritised.

Anyway your boss told you there is no office politics? Which office has no politics de? It is just how bad it is. Seriously is from another planet (joking)......
