Rather than second-guessing a total stranger on the internet - concerning a situation about which you know nothing - you would do well to question why you insist on assuming that everyone is as bad as the worst manager you’ve had.

To answer your question: no. I don’t do any of that. Also, this situation has nothing to do with aggressive schedules.

So then what the issue is? Is company loosing money on that project? Wish bigger effectivity? Estimate is just that - padded one makes it safer to plan. Padded one is also trust signal - people can be lazy while making tight estimates they will not make after. Estimate and when it is done are two different categories.

That particular manager was not worst.
