Nobody ever stops after writing that 20% of the code that does 80% of what you need. They always have to complete their work by adding another four times as much code just to squeeze out that last remaining bit of functionality. The result: Everything is always bloated.

As a frontend developer:

  1. I hate working with backend developers. Usually, they are preparing backend without consulting with frontend, and usually it is not fully working(or at all), then when you ask them to fix something it takes a lot of time.
  2. Badly described tasks
  3. Tough deadlines
