That’s true. I heard Chinese internet CTOs saying this about a feature that took a year to launch in NA when they do recruiting in CA:
“We can deliver this in two weeks with the same team size”

And we where physically not allowed to be in the office (BT Princess street) outside normal working hours because embarrassing security cockups six months before involving the Queens unlisted numbers :-)

He finished a UI control in 3 days, and then found out it completely replaced a legacy control that took multiple developers six months to finish. And then shortly thereafter we both got laid off, and the slower folks kept their jobs. It is a mistake to believe that the only requirements are the ones that the developers get to see.
