Agreed and a great manager won't cause burnout because they fundamentally understand what the expectations of their employees are!
I explained a bit of this in my root comment here: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=39809297
Curious to hear what your thoughts are
Fatigue - too much stress and/or effort over an extended time.
Disillusionment - company doesn't have your back or love you back.
Honestly, most burnout is mostly caused by managers and culture that just doesn't care about people. A good manager will get an employee who is approaching burnout to take a break/vacation or even change up what they are working on.
