"If the company thinks strategically, then no need for something like a 20% schedule. You should be empowered to make these decisions yourself... You are the expert." I fundamentally agree with this approach and there are companies that do as well. What is the term that encapsulates this sort of culture? Is there one? If there is one, is there a reliable / repeatable way to determine during the interview phases if the company you're interviewing with is this type of culture? |

I would say this is one of the strengths of the culture at my company and we spend a lot of time trying to get that across to engineering candidates. I'd love to improve our messaging there if we can, though.
We talk about a culture of trust, that we hire good people and then trust them to do their jobs. We talk about avoiding hierarchy and beurocracy where it doesn't help us. We talk about engineers driving their own work forwards and we make it clear that we're looking for people who can do that.
