Please help. I’ve moved up the ranks pretty quickly at the company I work for to become a Principal SE. My manager thinks the best next step for me is to move into management and leadership and has started pushing me to apply for an engineering manager role. They say that I will be a good fit because of my strong technical background paired with the leadership and people skills I display currently.

I’m torn because I do love being an IC but I’m interested in leadership also. What do I do?

A parent of one of my students told admin she thinks it's irresponsible that I won't be grading over Christmas break.

Is it wrong that I'm sort of pissed off by this? Should I say something?
