I&#x27;ve seen this more and more (not that I&#x27;ve been &#x2F;too&#x2F; many times around the block...): the engineering team viewed just as a machine that is turned on and off when required by sales and marketing.<p>Sales sold a new product that doesn&#x27;t integrate in to billing&#x2F;deployment&#x2F;support processes? Just get Dev to make it work.<p>Marketing wants to redesign the corporate website? Fine, just jot down a todo item &quot;talk to dev about changing a few things on website&quot;<p>Perhaps twas ever thus though?
