I forgot to include the "pain" part of the story!

The pain is client-visible broken features, no unit tests, terrible
incomprehensible code, no answer for "why did you type this?", no
ability to visualize the problem or the solution, and no way for
senior and junior developers to interact since there is no common
ground. It has been very, very painful.

Not painful enough I guess?!

Best wishes,

Grant
