Do you take on part time tech projects while already working a full time job? I have often wondered how professionals balance additional tech gigs alongside regular work responsibilities, especially when both demand focus and energy. The extra income and experience can be valuable, but managing deadlines across multiple commitments can quickly become challenging. For those doing both, how do you manage your workload without burning out?

Getting a full-time tech gig has been a challenge for the past 6 months of unemployment, I don't think that work is falling out of the skies for many of us.

I'm an introverted person, like to keep to myself, focus on work, spend the rest of my time on family, gym etc. I've been told that I need to work on my communication and client relationship building skills. any books I can read? I don't follow pop. culture anymore, no longer actively follow team sports (but sporty myself) as I consider it bread and circus for the masses and don't rly enjoy work drinks... Am I doomed? Personally I am happy and love the work but fear for my career progression.

Told a friend of mine in tech I was considering moving to BCG. He asked me if I would have to move to Boston.

I followed up by asking what he thought the top consulting firms were. "I'd guess PwC and then McKinsey are the best. I've also heard of KPMG, Deloitte, and Bain, but I don't know much about them."

Just a reminder that outside our bubble no-one really cares about firm prestige etc.

Should I or can I talk to my current manager about a raise while mentioning this unofficial offer? I don’t want to burn bridge with ex-boss by going through hr process to then decline if current firm matches

I’m not confident about the system design because of the bad experience I had with the previous interviewer. What should I do?

However, I am worried if I accept the tech role and I do not become permanent I will be looking again for a job in 12-24 months and my CV won't be showing a managerial position. Won't be showing any progress.
