> team or group

There's a big difference there, managing a few people is what I know as a Team Lead while managing a group means managing a few teams with their team leads.

I said team or group to highlight there could be multiple engineering managers, typically, yes, with a team of 8-12 (perhaps 15 in some orgs/companies) members..

Yes, everywhere I've worked (UK), the EM manages a group of teams, each with their own team lead.
