Work description
I was the team lead for the front end development team doing the redesign of all H&M brands on the new Hybris platform. Working with H&M we needed to build a new way of working within Accenture as we had 3 companies that had never worked together before: Fjord, Brightstep and Accenture Italy. I built a completely new delivery workflow from design to frontend and then to backend in Jira and Confluence. In total I spent over 500 hours building and training the teams with great result. This was extra difficult due to the fact that we built design for 6 brands and one was under NDA and not open to Fjord for one of the projects. We also built a pattern library so we could work according to atomic design for both development and design. This was accompanied by a delivery pipeline to the backend team for a very smooth development process.

In June 2015, Brightstep was purchased by Accenture Interactive. This was a huge transformation, and I had just had an intervention after I resigned to join Klarna (yes, this is the second time I had a job offer from Klarna), but Mattias and some Brightsteppers convinced me not to leave. As a result, I had a very good position at Accenture and a clear path to starting up my own organization within Accenture if I wanted.
After some turbulent time trying to merge into the giant that Accenture is, the stress started to show, and the amazing Brightstep slowly crumbled into something I no longer felt comfortable working with. I took on larger projects with the H&M project to transition all their sub-brands to the Hybris platform, where I was the team lead for the front-end team. The lack of processes between the three different groups in the delivery led to me being forced to spend hundreds of unpaid hours setting ways of working for us.
The final straw for me came when I was in a several-hour-long call where managers were discussing promotions. The way this was handled did not sit well with me, and as one of my colleagues asked me to be a reference for a job at Claremont, I also ended up getting an offer, and it was an easy decision to leave.
In the aftermath, a lot of us from Brightstep found a new home with Claremont.
