Here’s what we do:
- Kanban (no sprints)
- (45 min) Weekly grooming session
- Thrice weekly stand ups (async)
- (1 hour) Retro every two weeks (sometimes we skip it or it becomes a show-n-tell)
- (30 minute) 1:1’s monthly for seniors, every other week for juniors unless requested more frequently
- Optional (1 hr) themed mob sessions / office hours throughout the week. You bring a problem and the group that shows up will work on it with you. Seniors/IC’s are required to hold office hours at least once a week.
- NO OTHER MEETINGS; engineers are asked to block out their lunch/personal time and refuse any non-essential meetings. They have the right to request meetings be rescheduled to appropriate times or moved async.
