Should You Talk To Your Manager About Burnout? - Dev Leader Weekly 133

Should You Talk To Your Manager About Burnout?

I came across a post on the ExperiencedDevs subreddit that I wanted to dig into. A developer is feeling completely burnt out -- dealing with bureaucracy, red tape, slow-moving processes -- and they're preparing for an upcoming 1:1 with their manager. Their question: how do I even start this conversation?

It's the right question to ask. And getting it right matters. So let me share my thoughts.
