Most middle management work is brutal.
Director level is probably the worst - all of the grind but none of the glory.
VP at least you have some power and a lot more money, it 'feels' like something.
I think companies should pay technical people the same as managers up to at least director and there should be at least some parrallel technical tracks right up to the top i.e. Directors have Architects, VP's have Systems/Strategy Architects etc..
- jcadam 5y agoSome companies have a technical track culminating in "Technical Fellow." Supposedly equivalent to a VP level executive. I worked at Boeing many years ago, back before the engineering culture had been fully snuffed out, and technical fellows commanded a huge amount of respect.
