Why do all managers want you to become a manager? by E. L. Koba 08/16/2022, 5:10pm PDT
I have no interest in being a manager. I got into software engineering to do software engineering [https://vimeo.com/349391498]. I don't want advise on "how I can move forward in my career to manage others"

I also don't want to give feedback to my manager on "what my peers can do to grow over the next 6 months". That's your fucking job.
