Hiring for our Austin tech team took way longer than expected, and it shifted our entire roadmap.

Yeah, sometimes a long hiring process shows your original timeline was based on wrong assumptions about talent availability. That mismatch can mess up a plan before anyone even starts working.

Bad planning early on just makes more problems later.

Actually, a long hiring process can be the planning. Sometimes you find out the local talent pool for a specific skill is tiny, and your plan has to change right then. Rushing to fill the seat just to meet the old timeline is what really stacks up problems. A good plan can handle finding out the facts on the ground are different.

Sounds like a great way to find out your whole project plan was built on a dream. Nothing like a long search to show you were hoping for a unicorn.
