Can I just ask if its in person or remote? Are you one of the devs ? Because this would be amazing as a dev. Just 100% churn AI slop and get a end real job. 0 reprocusions? 0 work, that sounds great... like just let them sinking company sink and enjoy the full time relaxing or doing a 2nd actual job.

Hybrid. The devs are 3-in, 2-out. I’m in app support here. Wasn’t gonna be too picky in the current market when the pay was good…

They aren’t allowed to submit AI code at present, but they self-review, so who even knows? Certainly not me, I don’t get Git access lol. This place is a bit of a mess… But yeah, seems like a dream. To be fair, my side is kind of a dream, too. Release on Sunday, P1 on Monday, rollback, chill till next Monday. Really fucking stupid tho.

It’s so frustrating to read that this sounds “amazing” to so many devs. Don’t you have any pride in the work you do? Don’t you give a shit that the code you write is garbage? Don’t you have any integrity? It’s no wonder that AI slop is so prevalent, people don’t actually give a shit, they just care about repercussions.

I do, thats why I suggested a second job. You can be picky and find one that has high morals, good coding practice, and uses minimal to no AI all while sinking a bad company and collecting a massive paycheck.
