This is yet another great example of how HR only works in the interest of the company and never for the employees.
I have never trusted HR, managers and alike.
I would have simply left, no worth it discussing with a manager that clearly was no fit for that role.
Also, the role of an engineering manager is simple: facilitate their reports work, support them, care for their career growth, clear any roadblock. The priority number one for them should be their team.
After reading this story, I am not sure I will ever consider working at Spotify.
