Depends on role. If you are at CSS then it's not great. If IDC then yes it is good

Expect yourself to be exposed to customers irrespective of your role in FAANG and Microsoft.
Yes you will have some part for development but most of the time you would be fixing bugs.

Career advice?

I'm a relatively junior data engineer (2yoe), the only other engineer (senior) that trained me left about a 6 months ago and I negotiated a nice raise for the extra responsibilities.

My performance reviews have been stellar, but my manager is starting to look to hire a senior to help me deliver projects as we do lack capacity right now.

I feel like I might be missing an opportunity to ask for a promotion and hire a junior instead.

Any opinions/tips?
