Currently working at a small manufacturing business that is drowning in the "we've always done it this way..." mentality and I just hope I can get out of here before it bites them in the ass.

Anyone got experiences with technical debt or outdated IT practices snowballing into a complete disaster? Surely companies can't limp along indefinitely... right?

Update: lmao since I made this post, I've found out about A LOT OF SUS SHIT beyond our IT practices. Would love to spill the tea but there is no series of vagueries I can say beyond "the fact that we hired a pedo is the last of our worries" without doxxing myself :|
