Ask HN: Transition to Management?

[bosch_mind]

Going through some hardcore career burnout that has been lasting for far too long. Boring and not meaningful work, massive team and horrible oncall. Interviewed and got a manager opportunity for a team I think is quite interesting, but have zero management experience. Anyone enjoy this transition to gain new perspective?

I enjoy helping people and have a decent engineering background. This is at a “big tech/faang adjacent” company
