    I would like to present DX team another metric.

    It is called "not wanting to work in a company that is insulting me with measures like metrics, spying on screens, squeezing every drop of sweat and exploiting it workers for already huge profit.

    My last job change was exactly due to company acquisition by USA company that started to exploit everything work related. And who leaves first? Those who can.

    So you are not really measuring developer productivity but helping company get rid of most productive people, while all others stay.

    > Whether you’re a C-level leader or a frontline manager, there is no denying that measuring developer productivity—whether to understand performance or guide improvement—is a daunting challenge.

    good

    Focus on the stuff that matters, not on tormenting the people that make you money.

    It’s remarkable (but not reassuring) how carefully they avoid saying “part of the Atlassian family” in any promotional material for some reason.

    Did anyone here ever worked under these sorts of "metrics"? I can't even imagine what a torture it would be.

    Developers will optimize for what is measured.
