Maurice Woods: Your career isn’t the only measurement of success →
“I do feel the pressure to be a manager, but not by my team at Microsoft, but by the industry in total. So much of what we work for as designers come down to being a Director, VP, or head of design. At times, as an IC, I feel as though I am limiting my career opportunities because not every company supports a principal IC position.”
The UX Collective is an ad-free platform that elevates unheard design voices all over the world, reaching over 385,100 designers every week. Curated by Fabricio Teixeira and Caio Braga.Stories from the community
