this thread is full of clueless middle managers or middle managers who are managing more people than they can handle. those too smart folks are actually dumb in how to navigate corporate and deal with middle managers. clueless middle managers only understand feature delivery. they have zero understanding of maintainability, stability and security. those engineers probably fixed tons of code smells that would completely halt business either by breaking or allowing malicious actors to take over. but they are not smart on how to communicate that work. now the middle manager only see them when they start to work on small refactors which are actually their way to wind down all the extra work they already contributed and was not accounted by anyone.
