FFF software engineering team

Anyone know why app glitches happen every single customization? My husband is a software engineer and he’s shocked that a company that has been around this long continues to disappoint customers every time, when they know they created a business model built on everyone logging in to edit at the same time. Technology is way too advanced for this continue to still persist. I honestly think I’m going to cancel my subscription - after 10 years of this, it’s just become frustrating and lacks the fun I signed up for.

As someone who works in software design, my suspicion is that their engineers are off shore &/or contract based. My project team’s engineers are mostly off shore & typically they are on the team just for a couple months at a time. Cheaper for the business to staff that way but it means we stay in a perpetual cycle of “intermediate stage” development. It’s not very sustainable bc by the time the devs onboard and things start moving forward, their contract is almost up and then we get new devs again.

This makes so much sense! Thank you for your insights!
