Telling others you work at where Steve Jobs worked. Market cap. Cash abundance. Resources from vendors.
Clueless stakeholders with “engineering manager/director” titles are prevalent in this big company that succeeded (and expanded exponentially) within a short period of duration (from 2012-2017).
They pride themselves as people who know how to manage, but they are more like bozos who may know how to manage (and know how to talk in public) but don’t know how to actually do the innovative and technical work they love taking and bragging about.
These bozos are exactly what Steve Jobs despised and wanted to avoid.
Only when the tide goes out do you discover who’s been swimming naked. Stop swimming naked. Everyone knows who’s hiding behind the title.
