In general the companies that don't both A) pay better and B) are located in tech hubs / do remote work. So, go for more money, prefer remote or in a tech hub.

You can also ask during interview about the coding experience of the manager you will report to. Usually they are up front about it. If you turn them down, do us all a favour and let the company know that was why (more coding managers and fewer MBAs please!).

I'm not gonna lie, it's not going to be possible for everybody to avoid this kind of company, especially in the more backwater places. I left Singapore because I basically found one company that didn't obviously follow that pattern. They frustrated me too for other reasons so I didn't take their offer.

I think that this is one of the most underrated reasons for the formation of technology hubs and one reason why Singapore, in spite of really trying to become a "silicon valley of asia" (VC money: check, money pumped into education: check, huge startup grants: check) just won't, and will bleed rather than attract talent.
