The State of Engineering Management 2022

As teams have adapted to the tumultuous climate of the past couple of years, three themes emerged as core to the priorities of engineering managers: visibility, engineering productivity, and setting the foundation for the future. To better understand these themes, the Jellyfish Research team analyzed the work of over 23,000 engineers, while surveying hundreds of engineering leaders to help us paint a picture of the current state of engineering management.

Building on the findings from our previous two yearly reports, these results offer insights into where engineering teams are investing their time and resources, how they are operating and performing, and the way in which leaders are managing today.

In this report you’ll learn: 

1. Common categories of resource allocations
2. How engineering teams improved operations last year
3. Why and how teams are investing in future growth
