My manager was an engineer who got promoted... Now she is still responsible for some technical contributions but also has to manage a team

She is extremely checked out.

We could be coworkers, I'm in exactly the same position. My manager shouldn't be a manager, yet here we are.

this is why I don't like management roles. so many are just "opportunities" for more work with no greater pay.
