Ooh boy, great to see this discussion. If anyone's interested, https://progression.fyi has a bunch more of these to compare and contrast (I'm adding Square's to it right now...)

As you'll see, lots of companies reinvent the wheel with this stuff. It feels fundamentally misaligned to me while these rubrics are solely owned by each employer – personally, I care about my growth across a career, not just a single job.

If this was measurable and transferrable in the same way as – say – learning a language (e.g, I can take my Go experience somewhere else) it would be far more compelling to me as an employee.

The question is: how many companies are willing to 'share' levels and expectations to facilitate this?

I definitely don't want some kind of career progression standard that is shared across companies.

Please work for the government if you crave this much structure.
