I have been in such a position in a Tech Mid-Cap (400 million MAU, 11B market value) and it was personally the best job that I had in my life in terms of cushiness and low pressure; but retrospectively it has almost thrown me into the oblivion of technical obsolescence.
Fast forward, most of the days were 1 hour and half meetings to decide things like where we would spend company money in the next team event or how we would consume the credits from GCP in endless PoCs, and I came to a point where I started to do pro bono work just to keep my skills up to date.
My manager at that time wasn't technical at all, and he barely understood what we were doing. In more than 4 months of work, we had less than 2 hours of 1:1 conversations; and he was one of the most active people on the RSU channel to get clarifications about taxes and so on.
After 4 months I saw that I was lacking some 'real work' and moved to another position in a less capitalized company, but with some technical problems to solve.
The sad thing about it is that several folks that worked with me are now trapped in this company and inwards they know that if they go to the market it will be tough to find something so good on the personal level.
