Managers only care about themselves and will toss you aside to further their careers
It will make you a better engineer, just because you'll be working with other great engineers.
Managers are too focused on their own promotions and have too much power to be effective. They will work you until you burn out so they can show off your achievements as their own, then PIP you for being below whatever standard they feel like.
You will see an improvement in output if you fired managers, PMs, TPMs more regularly than engineers.
