Tech executives and investors have claimed that loafing employees are dragging down companies. But experts say the real problem is “lazy management.”

    I’m an engineering manager, started from the bottom now I’m here. Really, went junior dev / qa - dev - senior - staff then software architect then technical manager. Management is as hard as coding, but in a different way. Just because someone is not smashing their mechanical keyboards 8 hours per day doesn’t mean they’re lazy.

    Thanks for your perspective. My career has followed a similar trajectory to yours, albeit in a completely different industry.

    I’m getting tired of the short sighted version of antiwork which says only the worker drones have merit.
