IT Management sucks (lemmy.world)

I have been in IT Management for close to 15 years and I really don't like it anymore. Has anyone out there in Lemmy-land ever moved into a technical role after this many years?

Do you just want to bitch? Love that too!

I moved from a technical role to IT management. I never truly put the technical hat down though, so I can't speak to pure management vs. technical-only transition. I will say that the technical stuff keeps me interested, but the manager salary keeps me doing the job. This only works to a certain point though, and I'm happy with middle manager salary working from home making "big city" money.
