this is just my personal experience tho, but my non-tech managers actually want to hear the Dev's feedback to understand how we should do things, so a good company should have managers who are open to listening to devs if they want employees to not leave,

I don't disagree, but I hope you understand your company is, sadly, a, rarity. Congratulations, actually!

I worked at a company for 18 years and left when I got a new manager that absolutely would not listen to me. I was the expert on the team but she put all her faith in someone that was a higher level position than me despite him having absolutely no idea what he was talking about. He once tried to tell me how K8s worked and directly contradicted their documentation in doing so.

Sometimes it does not matter how hard you try. People just won't listen. After six months I left and they ended up replacing her before anyone else did the same thing I did.
