I hear what you're saying but surely it's a responsibility of the tech leadership (and even the non-technical leadership to some extent) i.e. simple questions such as 'surely it shouldn't take this long to ship a simple feature?' or 'why is everything so complex and ever-changing?'

You don't understand, it's different today with all the micrososervices, packages, toolchain, kubernetes, docker, cloud, security, product management isn't clear, they change too often, it impacts all the code, we'll have to test everything again, this isn't php, compiling takes ages, we need faster machines with 128gb ram, it's complex because we need to be flexible, otherwise it will take ages when we want to add anything in the future, and we don't want to rewrite the whole codebase in the future, we spend all our time refactoring, the ops guys running the database aren't doing their job - that's why things are slow, not because we don't understand sql, the customer always makes user errors and we have to solve their problems, we need to do more peer programming, bla bla bla bla bla.. It's just bs by incompetent and deceitful people
