What is the right PM:Dev ratio?
Dare Obasanjo, What is the Right PM<->Developer Ratio?
Having worked on one consumer facing product where we were 1:1 and now working on another where we’re about 1:4, I have the feeling that the sweet spot is around 1:2. I say this because right now it’s incredibly hard for PM to keep pace with dev and when I was on the 1:1 team I wrote way too many specs that we cut because we didn’t have enough resources.
