Marrow's support queue doubled every weekend and drained slowly during the week. The team assumed they needed more people. They had a hiring plan, but also a hunch it would not help.
Read and tagged 300 tickets over two days.
Interviewed four support agents and two engineers.
Ranked every fix by the hours it would save and the effort it would take.
Three root causes explained 64 percent of the tickets: an unclear password reset email, a billing page that hid the invoice download, and a status page nobody updated. The ranked list had eleven fixes. The first four took one engineer nine days.
They paused the hiring plan for a quarter. By the end of it the Monday spike had flattened.
