    absolutely braindead design

    You’ve clearly not worked at my company

    Azure devops and pipelines but only that and nothing more (not allowed to deploy to azure/microsoft stuff)

    ONLY deploy cf to Aws

    write primarily c# for all services, even our websites (iis 7, cshtml)

    only exception is a new mobile app which is written in React Native, but even that is more bloated than the windows 11 start menu. It’s the only exception.

    Projects are generally so poorly maintained, we’re still using bootstrap 4, outdated framework versions. I know personally there’s a windows server 2003 chugging along somewhere.

    “we know about this (medium) bug/vuln, we can work around it. Just add this new feature to the codebase” but imagine this times 100. I quietly fix the bugs because i wouldn’t be able to live with myself otherwise.

    the projects are 95% boiler plate for the simplest of tasks (curl a thing and pass it to another service has about 40 different classes), no processing…

    “Aws Q first” company where none of the developers actually get access to write code with. Explicitly forbidden from using copilot: “it’ll use our code for their training”… right. Won’t someone think of our flawless, industry standard code. Also, that’s not how that works.

    security none existsnt. Aws security tools used to scream at you every time you open the aws console. Solution at the company was to restrict views to those pages so (most) people don’t see the security/vuln reports. To get reports, you’d have to ask cybersec.

    most developers are in a constant state of burnout.

    There’s more but i’d violate my NDA too much at that point.


    we’re expected to hit 1/2 b gbp profit in couple years

    i think we, the developers at our company, are the biggest clowns in the entire IT industry. And yeah, we’re reponsible for your gov ids & loan applications.

      Not going to lie, that is hilarious. And forget red flags, you have a whole squadron of semaphores right there.
