alt Hacker NewsI wonder if overall team size has something to do with how the principles are dealt with? Mobile Shopping is huge. Some teams are tiny, experiencing massive growth or winding down. If a team has a super mature code base or market, and the team feels like they are caretakes as opposed to innovators, how does that impact them? How can it really always be Day One?

During my time at least (late COVID and layoffs), this was not perceived amongst the people I interacted with as a great position to be in unless you were raking in sizeable revenue for the company. Even then, I think folks always had eyes on the back of their heads.

I think for many there, it'd feel that way when you're a part of a re-org every year or the other and have to fulfill new projects and deadlines.
