The first Career Refactor Lab cohort started this month.
Same thing came up with almost everyone who joined. Not a skill problem. Not a knowledge problem. People doing strong technical work who aren't in the room when the decisions that shape that work get made.
Meeting weekly with the architect and still not invited into the architecture meetings. Delivering well and being told the pitch doesn't land. Cleaning up decisions made years ago by people who never asked.
Getting better at the work doesn't get you in. That's a different problem, and it's what the four months are for.
