Read previewThe great unbossing is underway, with companies cutting middle management positions. Cost cutting, Gen Z's distaste for management , remote working, and increased pressure on performance are all factors in why middle managers are finding their jobs are most at risk during layoffs. She said that not having a micromanager picking apart their work could benefit Gen Zers who don't feel they need to be "spoon-fed." Doing it rightThose who are skeptical of companies axing middle managers say it could mean junior staff won't receive the mentorship needed to climb the ladder. Camberato said staffers of all generations, from Boomers to Gen Zers, need to evolve, "especially as technology advances."

☆ A millennial manager who quit over return to office says some bosses who need to see 'butts in seats' are just bad at their jobs

The full-time remote work the pandemic brought means she's been more available to her spouse, to her kids, and to just slow down a little bit. The messaging was shifting away from what a boon remote work was, and firms were saying instead that they needed people back in seats. Many, especially parents like Danielle, found themselves reconfiguring their lives around remote work and said it's been productive both professionally and personally. But for those thriving under remote work, firms' attempts — or orders —to get everyone back in has come as an unpleasant shock. Do you have strong feelings about remote work versus in-office work?

☆ The 'undermanaging' boss is just as toxic as micromanagers and 'lacks the courage or work ethic to really coach and lead,' a workplace expert says

The "undermanaging" boss can be as toxic as micromanagers, a workplace expert said. A pushover boss can also hinder an employee's professional development. The undermanaging boss falters at the prospect of making difficult decisions and "will experience decision paralysis, making a bad situation even worse," according to Legg. Legg says that this type of manager is a "lazy boss who lacks the courage or work ethic to really coach and lead." Cain said the characteristics of a pushover boss include indecisiveness, fleeing confrontation, going with the flow, and letting workers walk all over them.
