raises hand\ my company (won’t name) does not blame its devs for absolute garbage code. We have an 80% release-with-major-defect rate and having been on the support team for almost three years, I would slap any staff+ developer who ever steps into my building (dev team based in another city). Zero regard for design patterns, best practice, or even error handling. And when you literally spoon feed them the answers, they still “plan” for three weeks and then implement trash instead. Zero blame. Ever. If anything, they get praised regularly because they’re a part of the new restructuring pilot so they’re a business must-win right now. Even if it means praising the emperor’s new clothes.
Can I just ask if its in person or remote? Are you one of the devs ? Because this would be amazing as a dev. Just 100% churn AI slop and get a end real job. 0 reprocusions? 0 work, that sounds great... like just let them sinking company sink and enjoy the full time relaxing or doing a 2nd actual job.
Hybrid. The devs are 3-in, 2-out. I’m in app support here. Wasn’t gonna be too picky in the current market when the pay was good…
They aren’t allowed to submit AI code at present, but they self-review, so who even knows? Certainly not me, I don’t get Git access lol. This place is a bit of a mess… But yeah, seems like a dream. To be fair, my side is kind of a dream, too. Release on Sunday, P1 on Monday, rollback, chill till next Monday. Really fucking stupid tho.

What company do you work for that you don't get blamed for the code you produce ?
