I always tell perspective employers that I don't want to be management. I care too much for the user. And I tell current employers that they don't want me in charge of priorities, because I prioritize tech debt.
I'm a manager. I prioritize tech debt by lying to my stakeholders. The only downside is they don't appreciate the cause of our stability. But it's the right decision for the company.
