Manager I/II/Sr are all just puppets. Scared little puppets with no real power other than forcing direct reports to work twice as more hours, take on more projects and assignments. All for a badge on the loop and thank you email and a well deserved layoff in couple of months.
It’s these people who are ornamental that should be let go. There are more manager layers for a 4 member team than necessary.
TU had a great run during pe-k and kapoor era. Ran out of hope for any course correction.
Squeeze every cent out of TU- VA and team!!
