If it makes sense, we go for it our methodology is neither Waterfall, nor Agile, but the best from both
Roles are defined and respected as an analyst, you’re not to be merging source code, deploying bug-fixes, preparing test scenarios or programming automated tests, there are developers and testers to do that instead

Entire SDLC is run in-house there are analytical, development, testing, operations, maintenance, and supporting teams (mix of internal and external employees)
As elsewhere, we’ve realized need of documentation just recently, so some system parts are pretty opened to be explored
But now we’re focused on all aspects of deliverables it’s OK to spend longer on tasks if it is because of creating more pieces of documentation
