Weird unethical employer hack aside.. No one that works with/for me has the interest in an adjacent position with a more promising career trajectory.. so how common is this?

Isn’t moving from an ic to management exactly that? I know an ex-engineer well who switched to management because they wanted to be a VP (their words).
