Comment grill the manager(s) (Score 1) 569

I've had some bad managers in the past, so the questions I've started asking in interviews let me see how good the manager is.

stuff like

"go through the major points raised in the mythical man month."
(point to a random person in the room, that works under that manager) "when was the last time that person took time off"
"how do you get status on your projects" (are they going to bother you a lot asking how close you are to finishing, is their VCS set up to let you mark when things are completed, and does the manager read it)
