Anyone else thinking of switching to SWE?

I feel like the time investment I’m putting in to passing exams would pay off better if I just put that time investment into coding. Plus my hours would be better.

TC 90k, 2 YOE, 4 exams

Think about this a lot. Would say I go back and forth, but the business aspect of the actuary path appeals to me whereas swe might just be putting my head in code

"Everybody can be a leader" some say... "Leaders are nurtured not born" say others... True.

But... this is also true: "not everybody wants to be a leader" (whether they can or can't be). It is a fairly common practice in organizations with traditional career management structures for people to "be promoted" into leadership roles as the "end steps of the corporate ladder" that was climbed doing technical work. And, unfortunately, this doesn't work all the time
