My company also has a level for level match, except there are far more managers than equivalent high level ICs, and even the generous IC tree ends far sooner than the management one does. If a manager is so inclined one could pursue an executive position, and I’ve never seen an equivalent for IC engineers. I think there is probably one IC equivalent for every 2-3 low level managers, and $CORP is better about these things than any other company I’ve ever worked for.
