If you think so you've only ever worked in a trash org. If my productivity was hurt by things outside my control I'd expect (and have had) managers to fight for me.
This has to be the most depressing comment I've read this week. I assure you, not all places are like this. Especially mid-smalll, but even some pockets inside large-mega.
What company will promote you for rebooting your machine?
Maybe you’re not gonna get fired, but I can’t imagine someone hitting staff level because they spent a third of their week recovering from a weekly reboot
There are two critical conversations during this meetings:
Do we promote this guy? Do we fire this guy?
It doesn’t matter what the excuse is or the size of the company, if you don’t have impact for the next level you’re not promoted. Put simply, you’re not getting promoted rebooting your machine.
Maybe your boss can defend you from a conversation, especially if the problem is systematic (impacting the whole team).
During the compensation calibration meetings, there is no boss in the world that would be able to argue anything to your benefit
