DevOps “culture” gets blamed for everything—so what is it, really? Pinja and Eficode consultant Dan Khurram cut through the buzzwords to define culture in practical terms: how decisions get made, what behaviors are acceptable, and how teams talk about uncertainty and failure. They compare textbook “DevOps culture” to actual corporate culture, then borrow lessons from high-stakes domains like aviation and healthcare on learning from incidents instead of hiding them. Along the way: onboarding as your first culture signal, Microsoft’s “learn-it-all” shift, and three takeaways you can apply now—don’t call it a culture change, define your “why” for your context, and start locally so good habits spread. If your transformation feels like more ceremonies than substance (hello, Jira), this episode gives you a clearer map.
