This is basically how the entire company I work for operates. The biggest problem is wishful thinking when scheduling brand new features, as in &quot;you have a week to write a robust one-dimensional edge-detection and comparison algorithm, but the hardware the data is sampled from won&#x27;t be ready for another four weeks.&quot;<p>We&#x27;re currently in the Death March phase, because our wishful thinking has caused so much stuff to slip that our milestones are slipping.<p>I&#x27;m currently working on my resume.
