Be me, get a consultant job, go to a supposedly great client that has fame of getting scouted by Google. (attn: I doubted all this shit before I started)

Learn the basics by a awesome mentor and trial/error stuff at the same time to get the hang of things, after that was done, I noticed there was no documentation whatsoever, code is spaghetti and your documentation, good luck!

Royal spaghetti, you can't make heads or tails of it, dev code in production, empty try/catch blocks, empty statements, if (true)... (incl. their core classes)

Keep in mind this is a multi milion dollar company...

Someone please understand my pain...

    I've worked in multi million and multi billion dollar companies. I'm not surprised in the slightest. I'd argue that the bigger the company then the more likely that is.

    The problem is the people at the top don't care about doing things right, they just want what works, done as fast as possible.

    @GigaMick i can understand about getting things done, but hammering dev code in production code to sanitize or silently go through a exception/make it work mind boggles me man...
    I understand time constraints and deadlines etc, but some stuff you go through is insanity at best...

    Everyone's quitting slowly to be honest.
