When I entered the engineering workforce in the late 00s I felt like I was on a team of experts, myself excluded since I was fresh out of school. We were building some complex systems but we had a bunch of people that really knew what they were doing. Fast forward to today, I'm in a different part of the industry, we're building things that aren't quite as complex but they take longer to finish and the experience is very frustrating. I feel like I'm working in teams where many people don't really know what they were doing but we keep getting pushed for higher story point "velocity" and whatnot. Quality is suffering, tech debt is piling up. This whole thing feels broken.
