I like some micromanagement. If it's tinkering with gear or stats then I'm down. Working out how to squeeze out that little extra bit of damage or efficiency is great. However, if you have to actively micromanage units or resources during combat, then its a pass for me. I feel like micromanagement should be an addendum to the core gameplay loop, not it's focus.
I really like the early access game Against the Storm, because it's got micromanagement, but it's also a bit of a roguelike so that no one run ever gets big enough to get too bogged down. It's got the feel of the fun early part of a Civ game, but almost all the time, and with fun variations.
