TechWhirl (TECHWR-L) is a resource for technical writing and technical communications professionals of all experience levels and in all industries to share their experiences and acquire information.
For two decades, technical communicators have turned to TechWhirl to ask and answer questions about the always-changing world of technical communications, such as tools, skills, career paths, methodologies, and emerging industries. The TechWhirl Archives and magazine, created for, by and about technical writers, offer a wealth of knowledge to everyone with an interest in any aspect of technical communications.
I have posted a question about ratios previously and received comments such
as "ratios don't matter, it the amount of work required", and "you have to
look at all the factors including page count, etc.," and these are indeed
valid comments with which I agree. However, some companies insist that there
are indeed ratios and plan and budget projects accordingly. This makes sense
to a degree too. To have a 1 to 1 ratio of writers to developers may be an
ideal solution, but financially not feasible. So, I would appreciate it if
you could tell me how many developers there are in your company vs the
number of writers.
