PPMD will be more in the long run, but it’s also no guarantee. Also, depends on how much you care about salary vs TC

Not sure - you can make very good money at the Director / VP level at FAANG which would be way more chill than being a PPMD

Generally speaking you can make a lot more in an equivalent position in Tech compared to the years you spend slaving as SM. So leaving as SM1 to Tech at Principal/Director level makes you richer in the short term (think 1.5-1.7X). Once the sign on RSUs run out at year 4, you might start seeing parity with prospective PMD salaries. At this point it depends on factors like how well you did in Tech in those initial years, if you got another promotion, if you received a special stock award etc. If none of these happened, you can certainly switch jobs again and get those RSUs and get another level shift in salary. So yeah leaving as SM pays in the short run. The sooner you do it the better.

Serious question from a happy software engineer, what do you all love about your work/actually enjoy doing during working hours?

I'll start; I'm privileged enough to have been given the opportunity to work and learn deeply on Linux and Kubernetes, and I get to tinker and play with them all day. Problem solving with them is a "fun" part of my job.

Of course most things aren't roses and sunshine, but I'd love to hear the positive parts of what you are doing, or what you like to do at work.
