Desventajas
The engineering culture lately has been very speed focused. We seem to prioritize velocity over thoughtful implementation and quality. Team dynamics can vary significantly depending on the squad you’re on, and in some cases the environment can feel highly competitive rather than collaborative. Overtime is becoming more common and it's unspoken. There can also be pressure to move quickly and keep up with fast timelines, which may not suit people who prefer a more structured and balanced engineering environment. The company removed timeout days so now we're constantly in meetings or getting pinged 24/7 in Slack. My days have less focus time and the constant Slack huddles and messages are becoming more disruptive overtime, but it's because there's so much pressure to move fast. Sprints are starting to feel like hackathons, rather than balanced.
