PS. I'm also speaking as someone who held an assistant manager position alongside her studies (I.e. A job where one is taught to supervise)

Also I think a student prompting their supervisor to do work is actually out of line and can lead to worsening the relationship regardless.

Isn't there a set of duties and responsibilities you both agree with? You can/should hold each other to that.

In my case it is even written down, including their responsibility to give timely feedback. I think it's normal and healthy to remind them.

It may be normal in a lot of cases, but it should never be expected of the student to manage the supervisor. This is a bad basis for a PhD

Are you both saying that reminding your supervisor that you need feedback is off?

Giving feedback is literally part of a supervisor's job. If they're not doing that, they're not doing their job. It's that simple

Exactly, so if they don't you can ask them for it?

The point is they should do their bloody jobs in the first place, or be held accountable by their peers/seniors, not their juniors

But we all agree that this is not always reality, so when it doesnt happen a student should be able to repeat a call for feedback.

Please stop equating "not allowed" with "not expected"
