IMO, overseeing 0 people is great. I'm not likely to take any position where I have to oversee more or less than that; although I'm willing to compromise and oversee one person where they're actually independent and I don't have to do much overseeing.


I'm sure that some company has managers overseeing imaginary and complex people.

I would have so many questions if I got an offer for a position where I had to oversee less than 0 people


Would that mean you have to undersee one or more people? cue rimshot


  Up on the shore they work all day
  Out in the sun they slave away
  While we devotin'
  Full time to floatin'
  Under the sea


Overseeing 0 people is great if your role is an individual contributor. If your role is a manager and there is no one for you to manage, it would seem that your role is redundant.
