Short answer, no. Here’s why.
Peer-to-peer reviews sound great—better code, tighter security, sharper GTM plans. But in a 10-person shop, is the hassle worth it? Drawing from my own scars, here’s the real deal on making reviews work without killing your vibe.
In small teams, mistakes sting. One bad config can leak data. A sloppy GTM campaign can tank your launch. Peer reviews catch those slip-ups before they burn you.
But reviews are drag. My first attempt was chaos—endless debates over style, not substance. We wasted hours. In a small team, every minute counts.
Peer reviews aren’t a feel-good exercise either. Grinding through GTM plans when you’re racing to ship a feature feels like torture. Push too hard, and your team burns out or misses market windows.
Lastly, train your team to give crisp CLEAR feedback—say, “This page is slow,” not “I don’t like it.”
