[quote=Anonymous]I am a PhD scientist who left NOAA as a GS-13 due to a lack of opportunities beyond that level. I dd a postdoc at NASA/Goddard and came into NOAA as a GS-12/13. That means my first year I was a GS-12 and on the one year anniversary was promoted to GS-13. After that there were step increases but zero opportunities for real advancement. When I was a postdoc I thought as you did - that I would never want to manage anyone. It may not be for you but I wouldn't dismiss it out of hand at this time because you may change in the future and realize that there are positives to being a leader. Of course, there is a difference between management and leadership![/quote]
