With the federal salary cap - I'm curious. Is there as much pressure to move from IC to Manager?

My impression is that so many people move from IC to Manager at startups because they seek comp increases.

SES pay has a different salary cap. IIRC it's something weird like they can be paid as much as the third most highly compensated member of the president's cabinet.

My not notable FAANG job is within the top 100 pay for government jobs.
