Not a manager currently but considering it as a growth pathway. I’m an engineer but not in software. In my area of focus there is very much a cap on how much money I can make as an engineer and management seems to be the only obvious route to increasing my pay. I love the technical work but I’m hoping I can carry that over in to management if I find the right role.
Yeah, that makes sense. Software isn't as much like that, at least depending on the organization. It's pretty common to hear of Staff or Principal Software Engineers making more than management.
