Whatever work exists where a manager can control such things as "pace" and "performance level" it aint engineering.
- majormajor 4y agoI've seen teams that got very little done for a long time because their manager didn't hold them to finishing tasks. So the team was perpetually in a state of polishing just a few more edges and never finally shipping things. I don't know what sort of company would respond by firing the whole team, though. If a manager fails, the manager should be out, and a new manager should try to turn the team around.
