If you are not looking for just a good salary, think twice. - Software Engineer Shaw and Partners Employee Review

This dev worked on a client project for two months and was rejected because of performance issues we noticed but took a while to confirm. We gave him an extra month to find another job. I know he is a good person and I think he's unhappy about the result as he was being paid well and this is likely a difficult time for him. About the cons: 1) We hire devs capable of full-stack, and the job will involve more front-end than back-end at times. 2) Product owners ultimately drive those decisions, discussing with the team leads. Stand-up meetings are a group report to the team. This dev wasn't involved. 3) Our DevOps team provides all the access needed, but not direct administrative access. 4) This dev's projects only have a few thousand visitors per month but a high-cost per acquisition. 5) When performance is a problem, there is plenty of science to show that guardrails are key. Again, please consider that your experience comes from a situation that didn't work out because of performance. Thanks for the comments.
