Advice to Management

Please listen to your senior engineers about how to build good software. You're losing a lot of good, talented engineers because you want to cut so many corners and build subpar software. Why would you hire people to "not" give you insightful advice and "not" build the best possible software products? It's one of your key operating principles, but you don't actually follow it.
