I completely agree. I work on an internal solution, which is a part of a very large product. It's not a live product, only part of a pipeline that runs on a predetermined schedule. Our bit is the only one with actual business/performance KPIs, most of the other teams measure only "user story/CR points". If the other teams screw up, it will impact our performance unless we prove it's their fault. And of it's their fault, they open a US/bug which improves their metrics (one more US closed). Our team has to think ahead and try to do things well in one go, because our bugfixing doesn't count as work. But our speed is measured against people who benefits from half doing stuff. When we did massive effort, we got complaints we were slow. Now we do less effort and once every blue moon we have to do a hotfix. Most often than not when we have an production issue is due to the other teams that run before us on the pipeline, so we even had to develop checks to our input because they won't add checks to their outputs. And they won't because that's a CR that requires extra funding that's not approved, but we had to create them for our own sanity.
Yes, I'm looking to move out haha
A project is as good as its weakest point. While people might get butthurt by getting pointed at, a project is a group effort. Segregated teams are always a problem and almost always becomes a vulnerability,
Given current micro services architectures, we all have to get along with each other,for the greater good and the interest of the customer.
You sell shit, you get shit back. You sell high quality products with less obvious faults, you profit in the long run.
But no: "Let's test in production"...
Again, I agree and I've fought for that. But this needs to be top to bottom. We have budget slashed, morale in the ground across the board. Those who keep trying for the best fight a losing battle with those who already have up trying.
If the bosses don't care about the interest of the "customer", I don't either. I've already openly spoken to my team saying I'm now ready for things to blow up and get the attention we need from the ones really high up. I'm done working overtime because anther team is already working overtime in something else or because some bullshit political 4D chess were they throw us under the bus for their failings or try to make theirs our work.
Had an annoying day with this things, sorry for dumping this here haha
