FYI: it’s typically management who cuts corners, whether in hiring or process. I’ve met a few exceptions but most devs take pride in their work.

Tips:

1. if you’re experienced and management insists on cluegy solutions, either refuse or leave a trail of tickets and comments re: technical debt for the next dev.
2. If you’re not experienced, or if you feel out of your depth and have no senior to turn to, know that you will with time and just try do your best.
3. In either case, experienced devs will understand the situation and won’t judge you.
4. Also in either case, fire the client.
