As a dev Im always noticing these little problems in my designs but my boss just wants the thing done asap without worrying too much about it being nice to use.

Same here to the point when I do leave it’s going to be one of the reasons given.

One example is how this product manager type, because of company politics, isn’t really under the same department as the other software teams.

Because of his very very narrow horse blinkers approach, he doesn’t see or even comprehend why we’d want to align with literally anything in any other team and that includes visual UI stuff.

That’s why we have a bright neon pink “Back” button. Right in the literal center of the screen. It’s insane.

It is the bottom and the top that appreciates the quality

the middle appreciate metrics and deliverables

Oh in my case it's a small company and my boss is "the top"
