Recently, the business I’ve been working for the last few months, threw me in a project where I (and my whole team really) ended up realizing that they didn’t even understand what the problem was. Specifically, I had to develop an integration with our system and an external provider but we ended up realizing that our system wasn’t even close to being integrated with this provider. So what we thought it would be a few months work, we started hitting walls on every step and realizing that it was just impossible, at least based on our initial assumptions. The project ended up stale after working on it for three months, I ended up being completely demotivated and eventually quitting the company for what I thought an incapable executive layer for taking business decisions.
