Management Career Path @ Visa, Inc.

Hi, I heard after being in lead Engineer role as individual contributor, next level up to grow is Engineering Director role as Visa, Inc. There seems to be no 'Manager' title and Is Director title elsewhere same as Level I manager at Visa? What's the career path for management positions in general (Director -> Sr. Director -> VP -> Sr. VP)?

Yes they have Manager title in other departments which is equivalent to staff engineer. For enginerring department, director maps to manager. Sr director maps to sr manager

You have manager designation even in engineering departments. It is equivalent to i6/staff. But you are better off trying to grow from lead to chief instead of moving to director.

I thought from lead to chief will be harder then director to sr director? Not many chief eng in my org (only 3+), but there are 10+ sr director.

Which location? Growth is not great in FC. Things will change in FC. Austin and Bangalore HC will double as announced in all hands. Better opportunities there
