As a manager you deal with people. As an IC you also deal with people but to a smaller degree. If you can handle dealing with people you stand to make more money. It’s a job.
- stn_za 4y agoLuckily management is not the requirement for more money nowadays. Most Staff/Principle and even Senior engineers are on equal footing (and often more) with managers in terms of salary. At least in my country.
- Matthias247 4y agoAs an engineer on those level you are also mostly dealing with how to align a huge group of people - you are just not required with hiring, compensation, etc.
- xvilka 4y agoAnd it's good since often it requires far more skill than managing.
