Not OP, but I know my manager was let go because he didn’t agree with his manager (VP) in the new re-org structure. I’m glad he didn’t agree because we are customer facing engineers and under the new re-org, we would be under a person who had no desire to think about issues from an external client perspective. It would have made the entire team miserable and less efficient but the VP had an attitude of “why don’t you just do as you’re told”.

Sometimes it’s just poor leadership, but leaders have power.
