Staff engineers(L6, E6, equivalents.) What does ur avg day or week look like? How much is spent coding vs coming up with ideas, managing etc.? In terms of architecture/design for a given feature, do you do that or delegate to an l5 senior engineer? Sorry for newb questions... #google #facebook #amazon #apple #uber

    Propose innovative ideas and design docs that first half the team does not agree with and then wait till the manager makes it their own and takes all the credit.

    Whatever little confidence and self worth will be remaining will be crushed by low score on annual review.

    Go talk to people about big things so you can take credit for any work that gets done.
