Why is everyone so obsessed with Chief of Staff/Founder’s office roles suddenly?
Saw a surge in posts for Founder’s office/Chief of Staff roles, many people are interested in. What’s with the new trend?

Because it sounds fancier than an executive assistant and gets you up and close with the top management and at most places pays equivalent to a tech salary without any technical skills.

It's a pile of shit often undefined jack of all trades vague-all role that appears sexy because it starts with Chief. Especially if your YoE is < 5 yrs.
Never understood the attraction.
The high impact CoS I have seen are mostly ex-MBB with 15+ yrs experience who have true strategic direction altering leverage and an ear of the Top Boss.

That’s because most average folks don’t learn anything real of substance until 15 yoe. Several high quality to-be founders or x-founders who know a lot of stuff and can execute are a perfect for for the role.
These are pirates for a startup org, their job is to get shit done anyhow.
Most folks here who crave so deeply about work life balance and competence programming all day won’t get it.

When you want one person to do the job of 4, while paying for 1, seems like a win

Just a fancy word for executive assistant so men can also do this job.

It's nothing but executive assistant.
Startup ecosystem has overhyped this role.

Chief of Staff / Founders' Office / Strategy
Hey folks! A lot of people have been asking me on LinkedIn about how to get into strategy / founders' office roles. I'm in that role but I had never 'tried-tried' for it so I'm also not aware of the landscape really.
Would love to hear ...

What’s Founder’s Office about?
The role seems to be rewarding monetarily compared to other starting roles. Was this an existing role with a new name to attract more? Anybody from the Founder’s Office to say what your daily work looks like?
