1 month of your own concentrated work? 2 quarters easily, because at this scale: - You’ll get a bunch stakeholders each requesting a different format of progress reporting. - You’ll get pulled into dealing with a small but disruptive emergency that requires unique expertise. - A dependency will change in a way incompatible with your work in progress. - You’ll hand off the half done project to the new hire. - You’ll need to rediscover what the project is about after the new hire hands it back.
