It sounds like you're currently working for some managers that should be left. They aren't all like that.
- montbonnot 11y agoI don't believe managers operate the company. I believe engineers do. As you said we don't want to deal with all the extras which consist on dispatching tasks and making sure everyone does the job. For that we have project management tools and meetings... lot's of meetings. These 2 things can easily be handled by the engineers (e.g. agile methodologies, etc). You always need a boss to make a big decision like getting rid of someone for example or picking up the next big thing. %99 of the decisions made at the 1st level, maybe even the 2nd level of managements are usually not relevant. Again, they only dispatch the work and approve your vacation requests. You have to go higher to start seeing people making real decisions for a company.
