Former Sonos Engineer Here – Heartbroken by the App Disaster and What’s Happened to the Company

· 2024-09-02

In short, I’ll summarize my rant before story time - as a prior employee of Sonos, I believe that incompetence has infected top management at the company. Incompetence in management, incompetence in Software, SOFTWARE OH MY GOD this App roll-out, this roadmap.. is a joke. Alarm functionality as a highlight feature wtf, dude I can write bash scripts that handle alarm systems reliably on an IoT network, NO PROBLEM. And queue issues, what the absolute fuck? Queue logic systems are the most basic shit I’ve ever seen. Are you serious?
