It makes sense if a manager is managing a big team of for e.g. 10 engineer and a product. But in a startup environment where there are only few engineers and mostly they are capable of self managing. However in a startup I think there is lot more work apart from the engineering of the product but not all startups' manager makes more money than the engineer. May be manager make more money, but the placement security preference would be more for an engineer (i guess)
