Software Engineer KPIs: Good, Bad, or Just Unintended Consequences?
I'm curious to hear from those in the trenches:
What KPIs are you measured against?
Where would you rank them on the spectrum from: measurement theater > ok > super effective?
This was prompted by running across Adam Thompson’s 2018 paper about KPIs that takes a systems approach to measurement.
I’d definitely like to hear from other devs, but it’s also cool to hear from people in any field or role.
