Ask HN: Did you shift from technical to management/executive roles?

Lately, I have been feeling that the future for financial growth as a Software Engineer is not the greatest unless I start a company or a business.

I hear of people earning crazy salaries at big companies, but I feel they are outliers.

Non-technical roles, on the other hand, seem to be more promising. I know nothing about these roles, but from what I have gathered, it involves anything from Management to Product Development etc.

I love writing code and I love solving problems, and I wonder if this is just a 'grass is greener' feeling, but I would love to hear from the people who have made the transition.

Thanks!
