We got acquired by Autodesk in June. None of the responsibilities changed since then. It's business as usual. I am an Architect focussing on Platform architecture. However, at the time of acquisition all Individual Contributors were onboarded as SDEs regardless of current role and yoe. Our manager and CTO at the time (who is still with ADSK) told us that those are interim titles and these will be changed in few days. It's been 4 months now and after constant reminders in 1:1s, they have been repeating the same thing that it'll happen soon.. sometimes putting it on HR that they're taking time and sometimes some other reason. Is this normal speed of things at ADSK or at large orgs? Can I do something about it other than asking in every 1:1 or just quitting the company?

Keep pushing and interviewing at other places.
Read between the lines man! Autodesk thinks everyone at your company falls into their SDE level and they’re not going to change it. They’re just waiting for you to forget about it like a good employee 👍
