My take is like this: Engineering management works if EMs are good at their job.
According to this tweet:
- Startups with managers 33% more likely to develop product innovations
- Firing a bad manager and replacing them with a top manager drops costs 5%, since you reduce turnover.
- In a car factory, replacing a bad manager with a top manager diminishes the hours needed to build a car by 30%.
- In the game industry - good managers means +22% in revenue

- pyb 4y ago> Startups with managers 33% more likely to develop product innovations If the upside of managers is only 33%, they're probably not worth the added complexity/friction/expense !
- bergenty 4y ago30% improvement is a goldmine in any industry.
- aliswe 4y agoMaybe you are misunderstanding? This number would be the holy grail of any company. Unfortunately the claim made is pure nonsense :)
- pyb 4y agoPut it that way. I pay you $100k to work in a fast-moving environment, or $130k to work in a bureaucratic environment. Which do you choose ? (it's worse in a company as it's the shareholders who earn +30%, not you)
