There's also the issue that the salespeople are selling things that can't be delivered. So they sign really good-looking deals and get a lot of appreciation, then the devs get the shit when they can't deliver on impossible promises.


I've been on that end too. It sucks. I've had a few account manager roles where I would look after existing clients, and so I'd deal with all the client bullshit after the sales person had sold them the world on a shoestring budget. I'd get it from both ends. Devs acting grumpy because they can't do the work and clients freaking out because they're not getting results despite promises.

Still, I don't think acting churlish to your own team members over it solves anything.
