A lot of people who go into management are just ladder climbers at companies where management means more money, status, and power. They aren't particularly interested in or good at the actual job.
- dominotw 5y agoyes you are right. For most of us that's the only career path out of daily drudgery of coding and learning a million js frameworks on the weekends. Its just the unfortunate reality that people are put into this desperate position. And desperate people do desperate things. For many people Being a sycophant yesman beats having to code another crud app millionth time being bossed around by someone who is a decade younger than them. I don't blame people choosing the way out. 'helping people' :)
- civilized 5y agoI absolutely do not blame you. But I sure as heck am not drinking the "managers are passionate about helping people" Kool aid.
