A manager that's eating the customers on the side of the employees is someone who people stick around for and work a lot longer at a job they might not normally care about.
My graduate advisor was also the chair of the department at the time, she was German, we are in the US.
Every once in a while we’d get a helicopter parent call a professor to complain about their special angel’s grade. The professor would pass it to her, and the parent would think, “Oh now I’m getting somewhere, I’m talking to the professor’s boss (not at all how that works)”
She’d put on her thickest, sternest German accent and shut them down completely. I think she secretly enjoyed it.

He's been putting in a lot of overtime and totally deserved that promotion.
