I suppose it varies a lot from one organization and industry to another. My experience is that managers don't like it when people rock the boat, they prefer their subordinates to just quietly execute the tasks given to them. Growth-oriented people like myself are sometimes seen as a problem because they cause things to happen that are not in the road map.
In my field (fin tech) managers often do not have the background to be able to assess the value of spontaneous technical contributions. So they assume that if something was not planned and requested by management it did not need to be solved.
