Advice to Management

A better onboarding process for developers would be much appreciated.

Expecting someone to work on business logic before explaining what the system a developer is going to be working on is quite unprofessional.

Something like core hours for meetings and discussions regarding features or bug fixes should be established. Being messaged by business analysts at 11 PM or 12 AM doesn't feel normal, even if you're not expected to do something about it right away.
