Nexthink Employee Perspectives

Without AI tools, we’d spend more time on boilerplate, digging through docs and manually stitching test scaffolds and refactors, especially when touching unfamiliar areas of the codebase. Work that now takes days would likely take weeks, and we’d ship fewer iterations. AI has fundamentally changed my workflow. It drafts most of my code, allowing me to focus on framing the problem, setting constraints and reviewing the output. It also shortens the onboarding process for unfamiliar projects because it can explain the technology and guide you to the right resources quickly. And when the AI goes in a direction I don’t like, I simply redirect it and correct its trajectory; I’m still fully in control of the implementation. Overall, AI enables me to work faster and smarter while maintaining control over quality and intent.
