The worst architecture I ever saw came from consultants, who built the initial bits of a startup I was hired into. It was nice to have a no-longer-present scapegoat to shake fists at when frustrated, but over time I came to realize their most maddening choices were at the behest of one of our founders, who had no software experience.
- teaearlgraycold 4y agoI saw the same thing. Founders asking the world of consultants who would try to deliver and then fail to be a responsible engineer. I started my previous job by telling the founders they were asking for the wrong things and the consultants work needed to be thrown out. Thankfully they listened and we ended up with a TypeScript monorepo monolith deployed to Heroku.
