Can you elaborate on the upward trend? You mean like going to Senior, Principal, etc.? I feel like saying yes to everything ultimately just moves you to the business side / customer side, which eventually leads to budgetary control over a larger group.

Ultimately in my experience titles mean nothing, right now officially I'm just "software engineer", you can be a CTO in a 2 man company, which is cool I guess but it really doesn't mean much.

What I mean with upward trend is that I can negotiate conditions like benefits (remote, insurance etc... ) and a better salary, etc..
