Study finds 83% of software developers feel burnout
How much of the workload is just the dev shortage&#x2F;insufficient staffing?<p>I am currently the only dev on my team because of departures (there should be 4). Now, it is not really all that in production yet so it hasn&#x27;t required late nights or waking up at odd hours, but it does linger in my mind that this could be a big issue if it grew a lot and my team didn&#x27;t. I would hate to support it alone.<p>A friend of mine is missing two people on his team at another company. It means that they had to shove the interns into the support rotation to have full coverage of their app. They are hiring too, but as things stand, interns are staying up in the night deal with production errors and they are waking each other up as well, they are interns and don&#x27;t know what they are doing.<p>Software seems like something that needs a sufficiently sized team after a certain point and nearly every team I know of anywhere is short people at the moment, even at FAANGs.
