The restructuring is company wide. Every vertical is going to be affected.

Hi all,

This is my first post on this forum and I would like to take some advice. I have 10+ years of experience working in leading MNC. I recently got into a management position and have 6 people reporting to me. Because of corporate restructuting, the company is now making a policy of having 1 manager for every 12 people. So that means I no longer get to be a Manager after the restructuring and need to go back to do Technical work or be in a lead position. My problem is (1) its been couple of years since I lost touch with the Technical side and (2) my interests are to continue in this management side. (3) it is hard to be become a peer to the people I manage, even though it is a lead position.
My manager tells me that once the company stabilizes and it goes into the hiring mode again, I can go into the management position but nobody knows when it is gonna be.
My question is should I stick here and wait for that opportunity or get out and find a new job.

Appeciate your views on this.

Thanks
Srinath

Both the jobs (Technical and Management) have their own challenges and risks. Ultimately you need to decide what you want for yourself. Prospect of losing touch of one's technical skills is one of the common reactions for a person wanting to move to the Management role. But once you get over it there are lots of challenges ahead in the management career.
Its easy to be a manager but to be a Good Manager you need to keep the people reporting to you as well as your Boss happy and that is one of the big challenge.
