> I'm curious as to how they would do this. No documentation, testing or code reviews, selective knowledge sharing (only to some people at some times, the others might get yelled at), code that is not easy to understand on its own (not impossible of course, just hard enough that you won't bother understanding unless you really had to). Big decisions were not really discussed with anybody except a select few. The regular developer would simply have things communicated to them e.g. from today we're using Git instead of Subversion, from next week we're doing weekly instead of monthly releases etc. Of course, if you were persistent and really interested you would get to know more about the platform. It's just that things were made hard enough that most people wouldn't really want to do it.
