I joined a startup a couple years ago, and got handed a poisoned chalice. It was a project that was critical to the company, but that was not very reliable, and broke overnight very often, sometimes 3-4 days per week. I was the 4th dev on it. Everyone else who worked on it before had burned out and quit. The dev before me couldn’t tough it out another 2 weeks and quit before i joined. Eventually I burned out after a year and quit too. All this to say, that’s great when it works, but when it goes bad it’s real bad hahaha.
