Sounds like they could have solved their problem by hiring a solid Front-End Developer. Saying that you like to "focus on the backend" is a lot like saying you only like to do half the work. If you find it too hard to master a whole suite of software that you have ignored for 3+ years, go find someone who already has and quit treating the front end like it's a toy

Exactly.

> In early 2017 we almost solved the problem with the front-end, as we hired an expert who made the whole site over using BEM block technology

Seems like they reduce the front-end to CSS.

For some reason the phrase "BEM block technology" makes me cringe. It sounds like something a non-technical manager would say, but these guys are actual devs...

Same here. BEM is not "technology". It's a philosophy or an organisational pattern.
