PEOPLE WHO HAVE MADE THE JUMP FROM "SENIOR" TO "STAFF" DEV, HOW IS IT WORKING OUT? (REDDIT THREAD)

Summary from the TLDR Web Dev newsletter

Staff engineers generally code less than senior engineers and instead need to show impact on an organizational level. This means that the scope of work is often vague and staff engineers have to spend more of their time building cross-functional relationships and getting people excited about their ideas. While they occasionally code, most of their technical work is at a higher level, like architecture and design.
