I’ve heard of companies where hundreds of people officially report to person X but there are “mentors” with 3-5 mentees that seem an awful lot like other company’s mangers. Not sure what the point is exactly.
- duskwuff 3y ago> Not sure what the point is exactly. A promotion to "manager" is expected to come with a pay raise. Acting as a "mentor", less so.
- betaby 3y agoI mean manager has at least some power, 'mentors' or 'leads' - don't. At current org. we have ~20 ICs in the department and one manager, there are clearly 3, maybe 4 folks who are more senior in experience and more influential, but no, no one perceive them as managers.
