Yea I'd be curious what this looks like for DS or PM folks since I know there's a similar ladder

I think the gap is bigger bc you can just stay at L5 permanently

Great writeup Ryan! Influence, ownership, impact, and soft skills all start to be key differentiators between L4 and L5. It only continues as you look to go to L6!

Awesome comparison and I share a lot of the same thoughts around the difference. I’m looking forward to L5 -> L6!
