Are you an Associate or a Senior?

OP, you should talk to your counsellor/partner to see if they can direct you to get more experience in what area you want to be in. But be willing to be flexible (sounds like you have been). People i talked to have gone above and beyond to get me to where i want to be, but if you dont see that with people around you, them i think its fine to leave as long as you know exactly where you want to go!!!

What was the reason for you wanting to leave? If it was because you werent getting leadership experience, just be patient... It has been ONE year. Youre expected to do the grunt work.

@P1 Associate currently, would be doing the senior role on the project.

@E1 was wanting to leave mainly for not getting the relevant experience to my field. Have been working on a client outside of my background and in completely different area of knowledge/skills

Take on the role and try it on for size. I'm in the same position and decided to take the role. If October rolls around, ill give it another couple months to feel things out. You never know. This new role could come with a team or manager/director you really enjoy working with.

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?
