Some managers never factor the initial learning curve which would slow the team when analyzing build vs buy vs import

"The only way to get rid of a temptation is to yield to it. Resist it, and your soul grows sick with longing for the things it has forbidden to itself, with desire for what its monstrous laws have made monstrous and unlawful."

Code review is one of the majorly underrated tasks in development. It solves most of communication, collaboration, handover, and clarity concerns in a project.

Some of the red flags of toxic companies so far are employee burnout, lack of proper growth guidelines, Lack of planning, always having scope creeps, no work-life balance.
Most of these I try to avoid. After all, at the end of the day, the company will choose itself, so learn to prioritize self and separate work and personal engagements. -
Enjoyed the read. It is good you took your stand. Most of the ambiguities are mostly later used in disciplinary considering you put your signature to the document.

@Voxera it is a core business logic. And all tests depend on it. Just that everyone captured the tests differently
-
@craig939393 it's a temporary fix. We still have an architectural issue, that needs resolution but lack the time to work on it

@netikras This worked for us too. And add an email or system notification for errors or successful confirmation.

Depends on the load of work and policy set around it.
If there is no policy, it can be like a second for stuff like `fixed/add/update x for issue x`
Some policy require detailed according to fix
`Add component x for x to support implementation of y. Removed dx to ensure meeting z and blah blah blah`
Also avoid huge commits, they make you think alot on what to write -
@LiterallyJesus Does it even help, or does it make one sleepy?

You can set a rate to help flush out the requirements and design. After which have a contract on features/modules and cost of each with timelines.

Depends, some manual testers are necessary for UX test and do not require any programming experience. On the other hand, the unit/integration/systems tests should be automated fully.

Congratulations for the perseverance. You are now on a financial freedom path.

When a feature is forced in another feature by a lazy programmer. The dev could at least test on the UI before deployment
-
The company culture was totally dysfunctional, and quite toxic. With such, the company would surely have a hard time scaling their tech stack
-
The types of coding challenge would be to give a design flow to test UX and organisation of design elements in a way that intrigues the users
-
Enquire for someone with an eye for detail. Must have a good understanding of how the front end has transformed in the past and how the future of web development looks like. Since UX is critical, then domain driven design would be essential in understanding of the clients and how well the software can map the same to it's processes and fast adoption of the system

Corporate world is not bad when you find those who share same values as you and value your work. Otherwise it will be a nightmare even in the startups

Put a tape on that mouth.

Be confident in speaking out your thoughts, humble to accept critic and able to take them as assumptions to define what new to learn and strengthen your skills
