Have walked into roles where managers were used to dealing with nothing but jr developers. Some have backed off when they realized I know what I’m doing. We have a good working relationship. Others double down hard, and take it as personal insult that I’m not going to be micromanaged. These cases end badly. Others give try to micromanage, I let them know I’m not going to follow their rules. They don’t actually care what I do. But they keep trying. Basically pretending they are managing me. These situations are depressing and sad. To contrast. Then there are the ones that just point a general direction and encourage good team dynamics. I love these ones
