How many places do you have to give status update to track a single coding/testing task?

I don't want to do it but how will you track work "productivity, efficiency"

Hi, I am working in a early stage startup and our CEO has established the culture of transparency where he shares every update regarding company funding, customer sales, revenue and answers all questions within company but one thing that has been bugging me is his micromanaging. He has integrated a bot in slack which ask for what did you do yesterday ? and what are you going to do today ? , Everyday He also managed a spreadsheet of our tasks and takes the exact estimate in days makes a calendar view there and keeps asking up to update on our tasks progress in multiple meetings or on chat. I didn't had such experience in prior companies but he mentioned, such things were being followed in NyKa, DineOut, etc as well Does the well known companies like Phonepe, Uber, Zomato, google, amazon, Microsoft, De shaw, sprinklr follow this as well ? I just wanna check, is he doing too much or it this a standard in Indian companies ? Thanks to all whoever reply to this post, please share your current & past experience.

how much money shall I ask them for this "assignment" ?

I am honestly just furious at the pay difference between the salary of an sde and a pm. Both work just as hard.

While I 100% agree that a PM at a company like Juspay that sells technical products needs to have good technical proficiency to the extent of understanding code as well, why are there no EMs? In a company that's as engineering driven as Juspay, it is all the more important to have EMs who bring in valuable 8+ years of industry experience and have the know how of guiding engineers on building reliable scalable systems and logic. I learnt that Juspay expects PMs to do it all. Questions to Juspay PMs : Do you conduct sprint planning meetings? Are you responsible for the Engg team's performance metrics like sprint deliverance ratio, production issues caused, bugs raised, etc. ? What's the importance and significance given to hardcore product work like doing quality product discoveries ? Do you do code reviews? Are you responsible for Engg downtimes? Given that you are donning multiple hats and doing more than one person's work, what's your WLB like? A good way to measure this is how much time do you get to pursue your personal hobbies, say like hitting the gym, on a daily basis ?

Jira is an awful product. It' got tons of feature bloat, it's slow as hell and it only serves to increase transparency (enable micromanagement) by PMs so they can justify their existence. Whenever it is clearly causing overhead and confusion it's always the devs fault, as if we can be blamed for years of failure to properly implement this boomer technology. It single-handedly makes me want to quit.

Need - Headers/Departments - Urgency - Weekly and Daily update I can use Trello, but the setup will take so much time 😢 Suggest something
