Enable filtering of team member on the team page by "department"

username-removed-419655 requested to merge mf-filter-team-members-by-department into master

What is it?

A dropdown to show and hide team members on the team page based on their overarching department

Why is it needed?

  • The team is growing larger, when trying to find relevant team members it's nice to be able to cut down the number of cards to look through.
  • Using a filter to reduce the number of cards will also make the page easier to navigate on mobile

How to use it

When populating the team.yml just include a new field which accepts a list of departments:

Member belongs to one Department then add:

  departments:
    - Engineering

Member belongs to more than one Department then add:

  departments:
    - Engineering
    - Support

For a member that belongs to one department, don't include it at all

Things for reviewer to check

Department terminology, we don't seem to have a term to describe the segmentation of the entire team. This is the best that I could come up with, should some other term be used?

  • Groups
  • Subteams
  • Faculties
  • Squads
  • Selections
  • Sets

Have any departments been missed out?

Currently covered are:

  • Executive
  • Engineering
  • Product
  • Sales
  • Finance
  • Marketing
  • Support
  • Customer Success
  • People Operations
  • Legal

Others are easily added
