Netflix product innovation and hiring

A few questions about Netflix: 1. Is the product innovation group the same as product management or is it a subgroup of PM? 2. What’s the leveling for product innovation/management? This if for an IC role. 3. Do Netflix recruiters generally cast a wide net? My current title is PM but the Netflix ro

What's your favorite tech podcasts?

Wasting too much time in the shuttle by browsing blind, reddit and social media apps. Want to use this time more productively. Any engineering focused podcasts that will increase your skills like system design, high scalability, tech management, start up stories etc?

Amazon - On focus - An idea

What if I just set my slack status as “On focus/dev plan” This would allow my coworkers to realize that I’m probably not gonna work on my tasks (so they don’t waste time on me) and also get back at management since coworkers will be more inclined to switch teams and people willing to join mine will

What companies are hiring right now?

I’m a new grad trying to secure a position in product management. I feel like every other post on here I see there’s a hiring freeze/ layoffs. So who actually is hiring right now? I feel like I’ve wasted so much time applying to job listings for companies that aren’t actually hiring. TC: 0, recent

Do you wanna have a good laugh at my expense?

I ditched engineering management TC 160 for a 90k SWE job in order to switch careers or get into tech. Mid 30s. Now: - there aren’t many jobs in tech nowadays - not sure if I want to stay SWE. I am picking it up but it seems a bit boring and a waste of life to become pro at it. I screwed myself.

Are product managers doomed?

Over-analysis paralysis, burden on timelines, vague specs that pivot during development because details only get added during adhoc clarification meetings, constantly either failing experiments or celebrating a 0.1% change 🙄 after wasting months of the business runway. Wtf is going on with product

Missed promotion

I missed promotion. They did not even give hikes this year. I don’t feel like working for this company but job market is not helping. I can stay positive and try next year but have a feeling that I may be skipped again. No matter what I do the top management don’t want to promote. I feel my caree

RTO is a joke

I'm so sick of hearing about companies forcing their employees to return to the office. It's clear that the vast majority of employees want to continue working remotely, but companies are just too stubborn to let go of the old ways. I've been working from home for the past two years, and I've bee

Don’t go to Ola Electric India

I recently had my offer rescinded from Twilio the day before I was going to start. I had put in my two weeks at my current job and they had already sent me my laptop. It’s been weeks and they haven’t asked for the laptop back. I’d like to keep this for personal use (to continue leetcoding lol) but

Don’t wanna go back to office

I work for TCS and the management has started putting pressure on us to start coming to office. But I don’t want to as I think it’s a waste of my time. What will happen if I don’t go to office? Has anyone got any notice yet for not going to office?

Should I just apply to software engineering internships?

I have been a dev for 5 years in India. I am not good at being a dev - just good at interviewing. Presently, I'm doing masters from a top college in product management. Finding a product internship is so tough that I'm thinking I'd rather apply to SDE internships. Ps - I have a hefty loan Cons - Th

Hi Blind folks, asking for advice on how to talk to my team about not treating me like am admin, I work in project management & this place seems to think I am there to do paperwork only!

I would like to work in clean energy and/ or environmental sector

Been rubbing my bum with these tech giants as a product guy and it’s just not my thing. How do transition to a position I care about? It could be an Amazon &gt Clean Air OR just a job with Waste Management for all I care at the start. My resume won’t speak for the new line of business.

Engineering vs. Management vs. Production

At your company is there an efficient line of communication and correction between engineering management and production? Seems to me, there is always a disconnect that wastes everyone's time. For whatever reasons: budgets, poor designs, or incompetence; a lack of communication between the different

Ideas for exhausting FSA balance

Poor management led to this situation where I have to waste $2000 from FSA. Are there any ideas on how to go about it? Best case is somehow I could get it back as cash. Worst case should be I get the useful items that I elevate my life a bit at the least. Thanks in advance.

Heres why you should switch to management track asap

There are just too few slots available for staff+ engineers. I have seen too many senior/staff engineers who try hard for the promotion, years go by, and eventually they give up and decide to the management route. Who will compensate for those years wasted trying to become senior staff/E7/partner? I

What makes Meta ads infra high stress?

Lots of blinders say Meta ads infra has bad WLB and stress. What’s the cause? Some ideas (I’ve never worked there): - Management pressure - Tooling and systems are unwieldy = high impedance to ship - “wasted” work when projects fail to move metrics = low impact, despite working hard - Operational c

Kudos to Israel on their vaccination strategy

Israel's current vaccination rate (close to 10%) is far higher than US, EU and the rest of the world. They are not using shady ones from Russia or China, but indeed have ordered appropriate amount of Pfizer ones. They have shown the capacity of vaccinating up to 2% of the population per day, while i

Recently had a 'wellness' survey at work, this is in addition to employee satisfaction survey. Only about 50% of employees responded. Does your company conduct similar surveys and more importantly, ever act upon them and fix what's broken? Or is this a total waste of time and management showing that
