@teams that have tried this, Do you find problems with bridging background knowledge across roles? For instance, you have programmers with 5+ years experience reading/writing code. They understand basic data-structures & design patterns through second-nature. Does this create conflict and/or dis-engagement between the programmers & the non-programmers (management, QA, etc)? Typically, I work on teams with scarce technical employees. Most of the team are there offloading work that doesn't require the coding background.
