AGENDA

  • How will performance reviews for our team work?
  • Project Leadership!

General Reminders:

Meeting Notes

  • Performance Reviews
    • "Stage setting"
      • This conversation should happen by the end of the week, Friday August 16th
      • What happens in this conversation?
      • 1. Your manager sets expectations with you
      • 2. Talk about how often will we do reviews/conversations
      • This conversation will happen in your 1 on 1 over the next 2 weeks (ya, that's after the designated end date for "Stage Setting" conversation)
      • Lloyd says that in Edwin's absence there's likely the option to just delay the "Stage Setting" for QA
    • Performance review
      • Lloyd and Ben have had conversations before Ben left regarding everyone's performance
      • 1st review happens with Lloyd and your manager sometime in September (salary changes, etc).
        • Salary adjustments will be back-dated to the right date regardless of when the conversation happens
  • Project Leadership Model
    • Any questions/concerns about Lloyd's idea?
      • Karl : previously there was a secondary leader on teams, unlike in the new "project leadership" model. Lloyd says +1 to having primaries establish a secondary for themselves.
      • Shane : What about when a project reaches a point of self sustainment (e.g. Persona iOS). Lloyd : Another example "FirefoxOS Persona integration". There should always be a maintainer/owner for a project.
      • Rob : What's the motivation for the project leadership model? What's trying to be solved? Lloyd : Not all progress is currently being communicated. With regular status reports from project leaders this could be solved. Communication is a major motivation for the model. Also to make explicit some existing implied project leadership (e.g. Dan on sign-in). Rob : Could we not solve the communication problem with Tauni rolling up what each projects status is? Lloyd : ya Austin : Escalation method and people is an issue that's currently not defined, this will help that. Gecko components need to have owners which is a new thing for us.
  • Gene : any thoughts about the topic in MoCo about having user data in a form that we can read (unlike previously with sync where we didn't have access to user's data)? Lloyd : This is surfacing the hard question when PICL was starting to the larger Mozilla community.
  • Ryan F : He's working on a dev centric site for Sean and Didem. https://id.etherpad.mozilla.org/developers-persona-org
  • Karl : He's working on Moz IDP security testing
  • Rob : He was talking with Paxton and he wants to do a sync picl review and communicate progress and status up the chain.
