This is what I'm experiencing right now. We've basically done away with prioritization. We have no project managers anymore (we used to have 7), so any interested party can come to any dev to get anything done. We basically have no pipeline for allocating resources and it is amazing how many people try to fly under the prioritization radar of the product manager and VP of Engineering. There is, paradoxically, too much trust and too little at the same time, we aren't trusted to be part of stack ranking, but we're basically responsible for partaking of the orders that come down from on high in anyway we please, if you're a full-stack engineer it sucks.
- bdehaaff 13y agoYikes. Who vets what comes down the line vs the key business objectives? And who is looking out past three months to make sure you are building what will matter as the market shifts? I feel for you.
- hacknat 13y agoYeah, it's insane. I actually brought up my concerns to my manager and, to my surprise, he completely agreed with me. So we're going to have a meeting with the VP of Engineering to come up with some sort of process.
