@moirearty @newsorpigal @nixCraft Agreed again. This is an entirely different and sane working environment with fundamentally different thinking though. PMs are one result of problematic company organisation and copying others without understanding _why_ it works what they do in the first place. Agile and Scrum and whatnot can work, sometimes. But you can’t tack it onto something existing. You need to throw everything out and need a capable PM. Which brings us back to square one.
@herrbischoff @newsorpigal @nixCraft Yeah, definitely. And you also need to have a company with almost entirely self-starter high end developers, which isn’t cheap or easy but it’s a lot cheaper than having all of the structure for others. I’ve been very lucky to see startups rise and fall, work at big corps as well a research-oriented ones and at this point I could probably write a book.
“AI’s” impact is going to expose & wreck PM /middle management IMO, the $ people will catch on eventually.
