Ask HN: What frustrates Engineering Managers most?

4 pointsby Vishal191119998 เดือนที่ผ่านมา2 comments

I am currently trying to build a product that handles communications and management work for engineering managers.

I struggled with similar problems myself and set to solve it.

Currently I am looking to get my first set of power users and also validation for the idea.

Would be a great help to know the frustrations and main pain points of engineering managers and tech leads.

I am thinking of starting with startups with at least 10 engineers to pilot and test the product and grow from there on.

All inputs are highly appreciated.

1) Non-automated reporting (e.g., timesheets) 2) Incompetent sales team 3) CEO who doesn't understand the business

I was often frustrated because I mostly heard “what can't be done” instead of “how it could be solved.”
