A well-known tech company had a meteoric rise in the SaaS world. With each successful project, they grew, adding more layers to their tech stack and more stars to their team. But beneath the glittering facade, a shadow grew.


Kevin, a Senior Developer, was there since the company’s inception. Every line of early code had his fingerprints. But Kevin was also a man of few words. His genius translated to code, not documents.


Ana, freshly onboarded and full of zeal, felt the weight of these silos firsthand. While modifying a legacy module, she introduced a bug. It wasn’t entirely her fault; she was treading murky waters with no documentation to guide her.


The aftermath was brutal. Client trust wavered. Deadlines loomed. Stress levels spiked. The team dynamics changed. New hires whispered about ‘the old guard’ hoarding knowledge, while veterans lamented the lack of initiative from newcomers.


The company became a patchwork quilt with missing patches. They were a team in name, but silos in practice.


It’s time for startups alike to break the divide between legacy and the future, between knowledge kept and shared. Progress without clarity can lead to unintended chasms.
