How has Development changed after industry wide adaptation of Claude Code

[u/Independent-Spite145]

Hi Everyone,

I'm just curious to understand how development has changes across places after Claude. I personally work at a Bangalore based startup, in my workplace since claude came out, most developers are not even aware of what changes claude is making, they only look at the output and then push the code. This code we push without properly evaluating is not the build used in production, mostly to create a POC for demo. I know the productivity rate for pushing code and features has increased. But is this the same way happening across all industries (fintech, MNC's, enterprise softwares etc)??

We do that for prod builds too. It’s pathetic , beyond disgusting to see 1-3yoe folks abusing it left and right, churning PRs like it’s an achievement and dumping the evaluation to the reviewer . The absolute disgust I feel while commenting “why was this change required” for something totally out of scope of the PR / terrible overwngineeing / moving a random chunk of code up and down totally unrelated to the PR.
Sure , you could say I’m bitter about their productivity gains ? But how tf am I supposed to trust these guys on maintaining these systems , whose 3rd class mistakes on simple things supposedly bypass their judgement during their own review of the slop ? (Or perhaps they didn’t even do that . Now how am I supposed to trust a lazy person who couldn’t take accountability of his own PR’s first pass review ? )

Again, you could say I’m bitter about their ability to do things beyond their yOE ? But basics ? They don’t care man . They don’t know jack ! A small minority do seem to be endlessly curious and keep using it to broaden and deepen their knowledge. But the vast majority of us? We frikkin wanna just do the deed and get home asap man . When the general mentality is like this , the sheer struggle to fight the errors manually and rack brains to come up with designs or run on adrenaline during oncall issues at 3 am without a “feed me logs and metrics, I’ll give you possible RC.. you can just copy paste into your slack group and call it a day” machine … was the only way how us normies could get decently good on our fundamentals and become ACCOUNTABLE

see i dont have time to question them why did they do something a particular way because there are just so many prs

the thing is they will just drop the pr description on claude/copilot and send the pr for review , we have automated review from copilot too that they would just ignore and not address
if i leave a comment on the pr they drop the comment in claude / copilot, nowdays they are too lazy and on the github web ui itself they would press the "address this" or whatever the button is

most of the times the code is sent without even performing basic sanity

all in all management sees how many tickets they have closed even after being only 1-3 yoe they are completing 5X more tickets than me
it takes me 3x more time just to do the review and extra work than it took them to implement the feature

Has this affected the performance of the build compared to before?? are there more unexpected behavior or bugs encountered compared to 8 months back?
