- AnotherGoodName 3y agoCoding is a poor use of time given that it runs counter to context switching required of management. If you see someone suggest this you should make that clear. Anyone with a decent amount of experience could help back this point up should you encounter someone trying to push for this. There's a lot of other things a manager can do outside management but engineering requires too much focus. There is a push for managers to return to engineering full time in some companies and that's reasonable if there's an imbalance but asking managers to spend 20% of their time keeping their development environment up to date (the only thing you'll get done with the amount of context switching) is immature.
