I have a similar title, but essentially, we get directions from above. Tell them that no, we cannot do that in 3 days, we need about 3 weeks and a week of QC.
Then we delegate tasks accordingly to our team. Then jump into Power Point the rest of the day developing presentations for our clients.

You have a bad manager, probably at a toxic company.
Hit the target layoff number or %. Otherwise I don’t understand what they are there for. When they are thinking, they are likely converting ratios in their head about the exact number of people to be laid off. Otherwise they add no value.
Pushed to get results in the about 60 min of our vp's time we get per week.
We act as conductors, harmonizing the work of diverse engineers to achieve a unified outcome. Many engineers are unaware that managers often oversee multiple projects concurrently working with engineers and project teams, juggling the needs of variety of personalities.
There is nothing wrong in asking your manager what they do in a 1:1 setting. Usually they will be more than happy to discuss it.
