Yeah... I feel like I contributed so much more before but managing people, but this is where the money is sadly. I went from supply chain/purchasing/logistics manager to operations manager. I used to be a one man team and single handedly saved maybe $200k this year so far, and took our aged inventory from about $1M to basically nothing, all of our KPIs are primo. This is a company that pulls $10M/yr in revenue... small company.
I got rewarded with spending half my time babysitting the warehouse team, getting reamed by my boss when they're not getting through things fast enough, and fixing their mistakes and bandaiding bad processes. But I got a 30% raise so I guess it's worth it? I could be doing so much more.
