正好和大家就此话题探讨一下(因为这个职位和普通应届毕业做码农并不是同一个track)

不少工程师不想做一辈子技术，因为待遇一般，技术更新使得工作稳定性也不好。那么哪个方向对大家最有吸引力？

1.管理：
成为engineering manager，有direct reports，带领技术团队做开发或者职能工作。

从1stline到2ndline，再到大的部门负责人。慢慢爬corp ladder。

2.市场:
成为Product manager，没有direct report，但是有一定资源。后面如果能成ProductLineMag，可以对产品从定义，生产到销售的整个流程有个了解。对创业最有帮助。

3.销售:
一般要从pre-sales的AE/FAE入手，没有direct report，后面可能成为App Eng Manager，也可能干脆去做sales/sales manager，工作压力大，但是待遇上限高，有perks。这在美国的语言文化下对一代移民有难度，但是因为国内销售当道，海龟的时候有些益处。

4.运营:
成为project/program manager，没有direct report，以后在quality或者logistics部门发展。跨行业机会比较多。

是你选哪个？为啥呢？

请问楼主现在的公司招ME的吗？我是在职机械工程师，想寻找一些新的工作机会，谢谢。
