It's very interesting to see a huge cultural gap within the tech industry, from many of the comments here.
Quite a few people are saying : what's so bad about the feature factory ? This sounds like a desirable environment.
Whereas I, and many others here, see it as a living nightmare of endless busywork and improductivity.
(I've once worked in an environment a bit like that, so I know they actually exist.)
- joegahona 7y agoI agree and think it’s a divide between product and engineering. Product managers (at least good ones) love thinking about the problem, while developers love thinking about solutions. I’m generalizing of course, and both mindsets are needed, but it’s the product manager’s job to make sure the developers are solving the right problems and not just launching features that don’t speak to a customer benefit.
