&gt; It&#x27;s impossible to generalize.<p>Agree. I worked with a manager who was kind of a dick at work, but really cool outside of work. After I left the company, he confessed he &quot;had to play the part&quot; so to speak. Turns out he hated it too and left shortly after I did.<p>Most people don&#x27;t leave managers. They leave a crappy company culture that creates bad managers.
