2 week sprint = 2*40 hrs Is this normal in other tech companies such as FAANG, Microsoft, Unicorns? The team does both ML software development a d ML research. Putting hours in feels like manufacturing or retail.
You offended by having to put in hours? Awe
The manager doesn’t believe your estimate, she thinks you blowing it up.
We usually estimate 80% utilization, 20% for email and meetings.
We estimate 5 hours of coding.The rest is meeting and team code review
Uh this is why you should use “points” not hours
I think my old company discounts the work hours by .6 towards sprint, because there are meetings that don’t involve coding
80? Try 120
