Autonomy and impact
Autonomy and impact
You have a real chance to impact millions of users. Startup-like culture, push code to production several times a day. Build your own tools, use your tech stack. No micromanagement, lightweight processes, low number of meetings. Run your services in production - be a product manager, engineer, tester, and SRE - which avoids too much cross-team communication/overhead. People have an enormous amount of bias for action.
- Product priorities change frequently, which can be good or bad.
- Sometimes there are too many projects going on.
- Some (a few) product areas lack a vision, therefore they are behind in features.
Fix some product areas, like user experience. Be open to test ideas in that end.
