Managers are just the symptom. Growth is the disease. There is no good solution to managers except being small enough to not need them at all. The idea that companies need to grow to survive is a myth. Staying small avoids so many problems.

Having armies of people probably does help then I imagine most of the time, unless you got that team of 10x ers (where the 10x is commutative) making an architecture that needs little maintenance and scales and marketing is built in (you are the product) etc. Selling healthcare software means you need lots of brains on different tasks. Twitter like companies could be lean but Microsofts can’t really be. Although Microsofts could be split up vertically if that is what you mean.
