Huh? If people are having a technical discussion or architecture decision.. it seems totally reasonable for an EM to want to be involved and aware of what is going on. That's not weird. The best managers I've ever had are aware of technical details at a high level decision POV
- makeitdouble 3y agoYou're told in no uncertain terms that it's not what you're paid for. You can do it "for fun", but it won't help on your evals even if your contribution to the discussion was critical (well, hopefully it still helps if thanks to that your project doesn't derail), and will be negative to you if you prioritized it over other "manegerial" taks. That's one reason we sometimes saw managers just leave for a startup where nobody gives a shit about titles.
