A bigger announcement coming up tomorrow, but for our long-time listeners of the @EngAdvicePod, we just made all season 2 paid episodes (that were available only behind a paywall on substack) and the last 4 episodes we recorded for season 3 available publicly on all platforms (YouTube, Spotify & elsewhere!)

Just listened to the @EngAdvicePod episode on "how fast can one move in their career ladder" during my morning jog with the dog, and I'm overwhelmed by the amount of career wisdom found in it. This should be mandatory listening for all engineers.

Working on publishing the last episode of this season of @EngAdvicePod where we talked about our lessons learned working on Side Projects and how they have helped us: (i) to grow on our careers, (ii) to make some money online/on the side & (iii) have more optionality in general.

And, the last episode of this season of @EngAdvicePod is live!
@LBacaj, @ramannoodlez, @keyurhindocha, @VicVijayakumar and I share how we met on @dvassallo's Small Bets Community in 2022 and our learnings (success and failures) working on Side Projects/Side Hustles over the years and how they have helped us: (i) to grow on our careers, (ii) to make some money online/on the side & (iii) have more optionality in general.
We delved deep into our personal experiences doing side hustles, the diverse avenues one can explore outside of traditional employment, the value of a community of like-minded people and the personal and professional growth that can come from it. We also touched on the philosophy of 'small bets', the unpredictability of job security, the power of crafting your own 'personalized tech stack' to ship things quickly and the advantages of using personal experiences and interests as inspiration for side projects.

Still from our latest episode of @EngAdvicePod about becoming a Manager of managers.
“What are some of the most effective ways to debug and fix teams that are not performing well together?”
Maybe I’m completely biased. I would love to hear takes from other experienced managers.

Coming up tomorrow on Episode 7 of Season 2 of @EngAdvicePod: “How do you become a manager of managers?”
On this passage, I talk about some usual signs of bad engineering management.

100%, we discussed it on the @EngAdvicePod, and my advice was the same as yours, Rahul. If they get a PIP they should leave.

Not too many leaders are going to be straight up with you.
But I and the Engineering leaders on the @EngAdvicePod Podcast will be.
As Thiago said, "if you get the PIP it's game over."

I have been enjoying the podcast "Engineering Advice You Didn't Ask For" @EngAdvicePod with @thiagoghisi and others. It's been very useful to hear about their career experiences. Highly recommend.

Feeling a little nostalgic but incredibly proud of what the five of us accomplished over a 10 episode podcast pilot. The messages and support from the community have been truly heart warming. Check out our detailed stats…

Happy Monday!
Here is a clip from Episode 1 from @thiagoghisi talking about how to get started with 1:1s and how to overcome some of the initial challenges with it.
Engineering Advice Podcast retweeted
Do you have any advice for new managers who have started during the pandemic who don't have the liberty to walk around the building to grab a coffee with their direct reports for 1:1s?
@ramannoodlez shares great insights about her experience. (from episode 01)

If you're on the job hunt, I just shared two tools that really helped me recently:
- Interview Tracker
- Offer Analysis
Get them for free: mitraraman.gumroad.com/l/job…
And good luck! I know how tiring + grueling it is. You will get through this!

Great advice on how to negotiate for a higher offer
I can personally attest to this technique working for me in the past
"Engineering Advice You Didn't Ask For" podcast (@EngAdvicePod) we discussed:
- A framework for deciding between multiple offers
- Negotiating offers in this environment
- Things to consider besides money
- Startups vs Big Tech

Episode 10 of @EngAdvicePod is out!
This time we talked about what else to consider besides $$$ when negotiating your next Tech Offer?
We talked about Unlimited PTO (that I think is B.S in most places), we talked about Culture & Psychological Safety and how to assess that.
