Ok, go back to be an IC engineer , make less money and keep your “soul”. And let others give you work and run on business. I don’t see what is the problem here
Why should anyone get promoted for doing work that was given to them ? You don’t want to manage business, then stick to being a junior engineer. And make way for people who actually want to expand their career and be a leader. These types of posts belong in a hallmark card. “I want to make money but don’t want to deal with people and manage money. Just want to solve “technical problems” that is given to me by bosses”- such a cliche. Go take a pay cut. Being an low level IC is easiest job in the world, just accept it and take the money for it
Umm... No.
Therres a difference between being promoted into management and being promoted on the IC track. IC track is muuuch slower because it takes time to have a large, broad impact and influence without the power of management. You get power (and pay) by having a long track record of being right. ICs gain influence by excellent tech work and by seeking broader influence in that space.
If you go into management roles, you suddenly are competing in a space you hate, with folks who love it and possibly even trained for it. It's hard to win that battle.
Sounds like typical corporate politics. If you want to stay doing technical work you may need to find research positions or work for a startup. Most large companies suffer greatly from the peter principal.
Architecture is not a tech function. It is all about connecting dots and guiding people to do the right things. It’s an enabler role, often a mediator/jury, than actual development.
Half agree with you about the people part, but for real architecting there's still a lot of knowledge about best tools for the job and best approaches..
