    Definitely not my experience at four different companies or what I’ve seen from my friends venting. I’m kind of jealous.

    The only time I’ve gotten to improve things already written is when we had a specific contract to do so once. Other than that, yeah, small bug fixes but otherwise new development only.

      Sorry if I made myself misunderstood. I meant that it should definitely be the most common that you don’t get to refractor and do cleanup and maintenance and stuff. I’m definitely lucky in this regard. 😅
