Software engineers seemed to me to be "indentured servants as almost all were on H1B Visas (China) and had a poor command of English so they were beholden to the company and at its whims. Non-Chinese programmers, what few there were, were discriminated against. They kind of kick people in the teeth after they've been quite loyal. Family business (before it got bought). Legacy product has an extremely disorganized user interface; not well thought out; endless add-ons and a strange color scheme (pink and green.) Overall the software dev process was extremely disorganized. the whole process or lack thereof was disorganized. Often put very junior people in positions they did not belong in as though they posed less of a threat and were therefore more palatable for management.
