I don't see this al all in my field. I've worked for agencies for most of my software life.

By "agencies" I mean the people who do things like TV ads, branding, websites and so on for other companies, not like a pool of people who get rented out as coders.

Anyway, in agency life there's basically no "progression", certainly not from development to management. You might become a technical lead or something, but otherwise the two skillsets are completely different.
