      As a manager who WFH, if managers are ineffective at their job, it’s either that they suck, or their org structure causes them to suck.

      If upper management wants a manager to manage 30 people, of course they will suck.

      Keep the team to 8 max so the manager can actually do some hands on technical work as well.
