This is so true. Hire a bunch of senior engineers to solve junior level problems and they'll turn the junior level problems into senior level problems :p
I'm mostly surprised how developers as a community can both:
- Espouse we really need to care about communication in every form
- Still manage to let a few 'seniors' capable of solving the problem do so, at the cost of destroying most momentum by making the solution incredibly difficult to reason about and leaving next to zero documentation behind.
Then again, when business doesn't give the time to fix this or doublecheck, it's no wonder. And then hiring managers look cross-eyed at developers for wanting to work on green project instead of the next dumpster fire
