Apparently the only progression is lateral in terms of you just own more accounts. They like consultant backgrounds. It seems like it’s 20% operational (which is troubleshooting client issues), the other part of the role is apparently strategy and developing solutions for the client. More sales oriented than marketing. I talked to a few friends who have moved into the role and also interviewed myself.

Thank you for sharing!

I’m so miserable every day is painful. I want to go tell pre-law school me it’s not worth the debt because you will hate this career and then feel trapped by the debt. And then I want to come back to present day, quit this life-leeching, soul-sucking job and start over doing something else entirely. Too much? Oh well. Thank you for coming to my TED talk.

Hi Fishes,
I have an experience of 6 years in Production and Application Support. I have worked as middleware administrator as well for Jboss and Weblogic.
But due to the diminishing demands of the role in IT industry , I am planning to switch my career in Devops or AWS which would help me grow.
But I am not sure without any practical knowledge, will I get a job at this many years of experience in a different profile.
Do companies hire for AWS profiles with good packages at beginners level?

I’m a second year associate at a small, but reputable firm.

I’ve run into an issue a couple of times where the client doubts my advice because I am only 2 years in. Has anyone else experienced this? How do I address the fact that I’m only 2 years in?
