5 Signs Your Developers Suck

  1. Issues are not escalated early, or often - clear sign there is a communication gap, which is more detrimental than a developer who can’t even code.
  2. New features break the build - this means your developer does not unit test, integration test, or regression test.
  3. Designs terrible GUI’s - sure developers aren’t designers, but those who have an eye for user experience, understand how the application will be used by the customer.
  4. Spends too much time fixing low priority bugs - high priority bugs are harder to fix. There is a reason why they are showstoppers. Picking the low hanging fruit won’t result in better software.
  5. Does not comment - documentation is a pain, but good developers understand it takes more than one to deliver great products.
