Im at this point now, my next step up would be head of a department but the pay isn't anywhere near enough for the extra stress and responsibility, happily ride out the rest of my career in middle management (if I can)
Same - we're at a point where we're financially comfortable, we're planning on when retirement makes sense for us and it honestly doesn't seem worth time and effort to keep putting in "the grind" to get ahead.
