Comment on what do you folks discuss in your weekly/monthly 1:1 with your engineering managers?

In the last few I’ve had:
- How an org restructuring might impact the team and if there’s any more info
- Asking about projects on the horizon to indicate interest
- Discussing pain points with other teams — one example was I keep getting DMed by a number of people and this led to changes to make it easier for the team to be reachable by others.
I use them for the “10,000 ft view” type conversations.

This.
I ask my boss about project-wide stuff that might impact me and my team, discuss strategy / priorities / roadmaps, ask them to weigh in on anything where I need project leadership to help resolve an issue, and any perfunctory “goals” stuff (I hate it so much haha)
