Manager Layer fat prevails

Multitude of high performing ICs are gone while the 6/7 layers of management fat prevails, almost untouched. Hearing that “managers in the next round” for years and years but nothing changes. The spectacularly d*mb , incredibly political and waste-of-space low- and mid-level managers in technical sales are strutting around our U.K. like they are the cat’s a$$ and own the place. Nice selfies from parties at Vegas on social media too. Nothing will change because they have a Patel God. It’s disgusting how deliberately the U.K. org is being decimated for the last 5 years.

As the original post says, it's the magic of layered Patel gods: https://www.linkedin.com/posts/activity-7370765674866061312-ABEa?utm_source=social_share_send&utm_medium=member_desktop_web&rcm=ACoAAAAyRXUB0PsPhjKFIPMqRTeRSaLYZSZg4-0

Agreed ! Main source of all problems - CPO organization is an example of layered management and siloed “empires” that create organizational drag and late product readiness —slowing decisions, diluting accountability, persistent inefficiency

It’s not tricky, how about every manager with less than 8 direct reports is LR’d?

Choosing managers for LR from a pile of sh1tload management is tricky. The whole management chain is corrupted and support each other. That’s the true reasons for delay. But it’s coming… too much toxicity at top.
