Yeah, salespeople are the worst. You're meant to be on our side, dammit! Stop promising the Earth for free and then blaming us when we can't do the impossible!
Maybe a little too accurate.
Things I was told as the engineer on one of these calls.
"There's a $100k bonus riding on this (for sales not engineering) if we can add this feature this quarter".
"OK, so Sales will be doing the engineering on this?"
Best of luck to Bob trying to finish (and survive 💀) that impossible implement! 🙏🙏
Too bad sales doesn't follow up with "Do you actually NEED a collaboration feature?" first before promising the development of a new one. 🤬
Well they don't call it an "Engineer call".
