Managers and directors are a bunch of young people who lack experience and do not know how to manage people or run programs. Many of them have superiority complexes and/or are sheep who follow orders from other incompetent people. All they actually do for their unearned six figure salaries is blame and micromanage individual contributors. This is why employee turnover is so high. This, is pathetic.

How STUPID you truly are!!
Turnover is high because lazy people do not like being held accountable
Is it more civilized to refer to management as "young" or STUPID?

IF YOU HATE YOUR JOB- LEAVE
Everyone wants to complain but those complainers would cr-p their pants when put in a managerial or director role. Lmfao
Calling managers and directors “young” is a discriminatory act of ageism.
