Tbh this isn't my experience in the UK. Manager is just one path people take; others aim for tech lead, or principal engineer. I really don't see how 'status' comes into this.

Principal engineers practically didn’t exist in the UK until a few years ago. Even now, a principal engineer would unlikely get any further promotions and pay rises, while an engineering manager could potentially become the CTO.
