Demonstrably untrue, lots of software engineers end up in non-coding roles. Perhaps they want to make larger contributions, have more responsibilities, more money, whatever.
- proc0 7y agoTo clarify, knowing how to code is the difference, not so much coding itself. Making decisions in a software company without coding experience and knowledge of technical concepts is a huge bottleneck, imho, because there is a back-and-forth between technical workers and non-technical decision makers. If decision makers had the same coding experience this would be much smoother, and in my experience many stakeholders would easily be changing code in their products if they could.
