Yea I liked almost everybody in DSP.

I disagree strongly however with the management's tech approach, the Broad cannot compete with the other companies in the Boston area in terms of comp. What worked in the past is smart people came to the Broad for the fun, autonomy and intellectual challenge over pay.

If you reduce people to just worker-bee's finishing CRUD tickets on an Agile board - you'll get efficiency for the 1st 2 years but you'll lose so much institutional/domain knowledge and collaboration; the PMs will get promoted in 1 year while projects on a 5 year timeframe get uber-delayed; the smart people will get bored and leave and even the good efficient engineers in the system will also leave for the better well paid tech jobs that Broad cannot compete with. I've seen it in every company who has run this playbook.
