Thank you for your answer! I'm in a similar situation--the channel made it about four months before someone invited (by mistake maybe) a manager.

Should the manager be there is the question I'm hung on. Since she's the one who does reviews, 1:1s, and ultimately reports the "status" of each engineer, I feel like her presence changes the dynamic from a cooperative-team-locker-room to something that involves a little more posturing. Which saddens me.

Hmmm...
