Engineering managers have it easy, right?

Engineering managers have it easy, right?

Well it turns out they are some of the hardest working engineers, at least in early stage startups.

At Adadot we analysed data in 38,000 developer datasets from GitLab, GitHub, @Slack and Google Calendar.

As far as activity goes they commit 10x times more often and volume wise 50% more than juniors. Is this the true measure of a #developer? Of course not!

More importantly they are very present in collaboration activities sending over 100x more messages than non-managers.

More data to come on this.
