Oh yeah if you're "just" a programmer (in the sense that you don't have other formations) you might have to do management courses on the side, that's what my friend had to do to land a permanent promotion...

It's true management would likely get me promoted faster but honestly I always wanna stick with the programming side of things. As I get more experienced I will keep getting larger salary bumps, but it's almost definitely not gonna be from promotions but rather from switching jobs lol
