It depends what field your working in. Personally, I would rather engineer than manage people. I have friends who are now managers in engineering companies, they spent too much time listening to people complain about their last raise or their next assignment. I'm glad I got out of the dilbert world; more freedom, less hassle, better money, no job security, no benefits.
