His bad management is an analysis mostly. I mean, the "crater" joke for example. The writers thought of the joke, but the animation team was unable to make the crater. They still went along with the crater joke. That's terrible communication.

They said Monty also just sort of simply gave them the OK, so he likely didn't even check what they wrote twice to see if it was good or bad or not possible.

And then there's the terrible time management which led to Breach being Breach, and probably to Vol.1's horrible pacing as well.

So yeah, he was a good animator but terrible director. And IMO, it's better to say he was a terrible director than say all those problems in the show were "all according to plan".

As for the "Haters Gonna Hate", he said that in response to all the criticism he got, which was understandably mostly caustic in nature (and considering the show's quality, no one is surprised).
