It may work in short term, when everyone is part of product and tech team, and building product and valuation.
It will become a problem when junior people are paid same as senior level people that’s delivering more impact. And, when the company grows and have to hire support staff. Will they pay same salary to the receptionist?
Too many developers do not negotiate and simply accept lower compensation.
If your are a software engineer with a job offer, ALWAYS negotiate for higher salary. Most likely, you will get increase from first offer. If not, go find a company that will offer the higher increase.
Much like TDD, which works great when it’s dev driven, agile works great when it’s driven by dev team.
The problem happens when the PMs get involved and they have to schedule meetings to get basic status updates and have to implement their voodoo rituals to make it look like PMs are adding to project velocity. Planning Poker, lol.
It gets much worse on larger scope projects and many devs and PMs are inexperienced.

No amount of rosy thinking is going change the course of decline in this country.
Instagram, Raya, Tinder make it much easier for attractive people to find each other efficiently.
You exist because your parents make babies. All these so called people that claim they don’t want kids exist, because their parents make babies. Men and women make babies, because it is core biological drive in reality. No amount of rationalization will change reality.
Reality will bite people on their butt, one way or another. Biological drive will overcome any belief or thoughts, when circumstances become better for people.
People go through phases. Little children think they are dinosaurs and have pretend tea parties.
I’ve known several women that said they didn’t ever want kids, while dating loser college boyfriends.
However, when the same women met and married successful, richer, older men, the women popped out babies left and right.
People say things all the time to rationalize their circumstances.
Men and women will make babies. It’s biological drive. It doesn’t matter what people believe or think. It’s how species continue and survive.
Statistically, you will have children in future, if you’re under 30 right now.
Above commenter will likely have children very shortly.
Which country built the components and systems and subsystems that go into manufacturing an electric car?
Which country has lithium, rare earth metal processing capabilities critical in manufacturing all modern electronic systems?
Which country built the components and subsystems in the vaccine manufacturing plants?
Decades ago, US had the education system to move millions of people through manufacturing and engineering pipeline to build all above things.
Now, that US education system does not exist. The manufacturing base does not exist. The engineering pipeline does not exist.
We produce more dropout Tik Tok stars than Professional Engineers that develop critical cooling cores, that can withstand heat and stress thresholds in modern military aircraft, and master welders with 20 years of experience that can weld specialty metal alloys in compact designs.
It’s not just aircraft. Do you know who works on water treatment plants that provide clean drinking water to millions of people in US? These guys will be retiring in few years. Who are going to replace them? Who are going to do the hard and difficult job of maintaining these critical systems?
This country built Saturn 5 rocket, 50 years ago. Landed astronauts on the moon, with moon buggy and golf clubs.
Now we can barely launch basic satellites. How is this progress?
Then, we could only use Windows Server 2021 Enterprise Platform Web Edition, and only be able to develop in Visual Basic C++ asp pages running in IIS 21.
Then again, how is that any different than current Apple Google monopoly in mobile space?
This country can not build a new reliable airplane, like it did decades ago.
It’s failed project after project. Ask yourself why this is the case? What has changed in this country? What has changed in the industry. What has changed in society?
It’s not just aircraft. Where are US high speed rail systems, that other countries built 30, 40 years ago?
Where are modern infrastructure?
Who works in water treatment plants, providing clean drinking water for millions of people? What happens when all these guys retire in few years?
Tik Tok is all fun and games, and no one wants to do the hard messy work of treating water for consumption.
The flow of smart folks in the pipeline are dwindling. You may be working with smart folks, but how many are going to retire in few years? Who are going to replace them? Does the current education system produce the number and quality of candidates needed?
This country is producing more Tik Tok stars than engineers that can sustain civilization.
This country simply does not have enough skilled engineers to design and produce original parts to requirements. Let alone reverse engineer a worn out part.
B2 is product of its time and the amount of engineering resources that went into design and development simply can not be replicated with current society.
Tik Tok stars make multi millions of dollars, so why would any smart person spend years in school and solve complex problems to build state of art Stealth Plane.
Boeing can’t even produce a simple jet without having it fall out of the sky few times, 737 Max.
