Yeah, I feel 1:1's are the best place to get feedback on a macro-level. It helps you and your manager align the goals. Further, I have found 1:1's to be a place to not to just get feedback on my technical work but also on soft-skills, I think these are important because you get to see things from another person's shoes in a candid setup.

Glad you liked it! It's super easy for folks, especially introverts to not really push for feedback, and to not change anything about it either.

Hope this one helps anyone. 👌

A lot of organisations don't really make time for feedback.
Same goes for a lot of devs who might be too busy, or introverted to ask for some.

Hope this post convinces anyone to take a step in that direction.
