In his recent talk Andre Ng said the following:

> I don't see product management work becoming faster at the same speed as engineering. I'm seeing this ratio shift.

> Just yesterday, one of my teams came to me, and for the first time, when we're planning headcount for a project, this team proposed to me not to have 1:4 PM/engineers, but to have 1:0.5 PM/engineers.

> I still don't know if this is a good idea, but for the first time in my life, managers are proposing having twice as many PMs as engineers.

> I think it's a sign of where the world is going

are you seeing the trend going in this direction?

I was mentally hijacked into clicking the jobs link (despite recently deciding I wasn’t going to go down that rabbit hole again!) but fortunately/unfortunately it is in-person and daily so, so flying out from Chicago a week out of the month won’t work and I don’t even have to ask!

More to the point of the story (though I do think the actual point was indeed a hiring or contracting pitch), this reminds me a lot of the internal tests the SQLite team has. I would love to hear from someone with access to those if they feel the same way.
