Engineers expected to be project managers
Great engineering culture. High bar for product quality. Engineers are expected to be the primary movers of projects and have a lot of responsibility and leeway to leverage that responsibility.
I spent most of my time at Stripe trying to get my feature approved for a Public Beta release. I spent 80% of my time as a project manager, working with other teams, and 20% actually being an engineer.
