We are still hiring engineers. Everyone has a paid Cursor sub, and some people use Claude Code. We also have Claude in GitHub doing automatic PRs.
It’s mostly seen as a force multiplier. Our platform is all Java+Spring so obviously the LLMs are particularly effective because it’s so common. It hasn’t really replaced anyone though, also because it’s Java+Spring so most of our platform is an enormous incomprehensible mess lol
I work on a lot of Java Spring code.
Agreed that it’s inherently a bunch of barely comprehensible slop that the AI slop probably fits right in, lol.
