Haven't you ever worked at a company where the only thing that keeps the product going is ongoing heroic intervention by people with deep subject matter expertise; even in the absence of any actual feature-driven change?
- ishjoh 4y agoThis comment makes me sad because I left a place like this but I know good people who stayed behind even though it ruins their health and relationships.

Often coupled with a mindless executive team that has no idea that's the case, and eventually lays off the SMEs because they're "too expensive."
