I would be very curious to see a breakdown of average age per rank. I think a lot of us have been looking up the ranks for years seeing very little mobility, and all of the sudden there has been a shift up. I’ve been effectively managing r&d and production (I work in electronics) operations for small companies for about 4 years now, of course without the actual “title”. The amount of offers I’ve been getting for big managing positions has shot up significantly during the last year. In the companies I visit and work with, the “old timer that still holds the job at 70” figure has disappeared. I guess part of it was COVID, but something tells me going remote has also shown a lot of them the truth that they were holding the company back in some aspects. The ones who did it still visit and work on reduced schedules, but have become less hands on and are more trusting towards younger coworkers. People are resigning because there’s a bug reshuffling of the labor markets. My only fear right now is that, at least here in Spain, every company seems eager to go back to 5 days in the office, while everyone I know wants to keep some form of remote work(from full remote to 3 days remote 2 in office). We’ll se where everything lands on, but labor markets here have been always been a “buyers” market..
