Ability to work independently is a double-edge sword.

I’ve been in situations where independence was communicated to be desired. Yet CTO was a micro-manager and very nit picky during code reviews. This kind of approach backfired and I ended up asking a lot of questions and consulting them on every decision to make sure I don’t waste time writing things that were not up to his unwritten/uncommunicated standard.
