I feel like for those Sr. Eng's who can negotiate a remote position, if they don't go remote their careers and pay would go even further. It's one reason why I don't go remote, it's hard to reach staff or sr management positions typically when you do that.
It's hard to tease that out in a survey although.
- RHSeeger 7y ago> hard to reach staff or sr management positions There's a lot of us that don't want to move into positions where we don't work on software development at the code level. Unfortunately, that also tends to put a cap on how much we can make because a lot of people see management as an upward movement rather than a lateral one.
- rootusrootus 7y agoI work at a company with dual paths (management vs individual contributor) and a requirement to work at the code level would cap your progress upward on either path. As a senior engineer you are expected to spend significantly more time doing architecture work, mentoring other developers, and other non-code activities.
- eyelidlessness 7y agoWell, that's a shame. Doing architecture work and mentoring other developers absolutely can include working with actual code.
