SHOW NOTES:
SOMETIMES THINGS GROW AND IT’S FUN
We’re hiring! Launches! Everyone is a rock-star! Nobody cares about accountability during the good times, because growth hides all the flaws.
SOMETIMES GROWTH COMES FROM BEING EFFICIENT
- Google added 25k people per year (2019-2021)
- Do less hiring (less interviews, less new hire-stuff, less “where is?”)
- Don’t put the burden on the employees to fix leadership ambitions
- Google “Simplicity Sprints”
- Amazon “Amazon Software Builder Experience” (ASBX)
- 20% more productive
- 33% do repetitive work
- Is this good or bad for the concept of Platform Engineering
