I can relate to this; I have been struggling for a while now with this, there is no clear direction for almost none of the projects we work on.
I have, on a couple of occasions, raised this topic. My "manager" and other teammates have acknowledged that there is a problem, and they were willing to make changes. Two days that is, after two days back to the same rhythm again.
I have been making efforts myself to have a clear direction, at least in the parts that affect me.
I can relate to the clients asking for loads of features, we have one of those clients at the moment, and it freaking bothers me. They ask for features and features and give no time to improve the codebase at all. Making it harder and harder as the days pass by, we currently have around three years of tech debt accumulated in the project. The project is two years old... 😠
I have also explained why this is expensive and why we should focus some of our attention on this, they almost ignored me. My boss understands this but does nothing...
For further actions, you may consider blocking this person and/or reporting abuse
We're a place where coders share, stay up-to-date and grow their careers.
Thanks for the comment!
