Hi all! I work as an Oracle HCM Technical Consultant with 2+ years of experience in a service based company.

With this tech stack, is there any way to enter MAANG companies (and other top tier companies)? Or one would have to completely change the tech stack and start from beginning in other fields(WebDev, Al/ML etc.) to stand a chance? If anyone has done it in the past, please do share the best possible path I can take currently.

I joined pwc last month, and absolutely hating it here. Each weekend has been working, 12-15 hours work day is minimum expectation. And there's extreme hierarchy, where even after you spend 24 hours working on something, the director decides he wants something completely different and you delete and restart. (Note that you request them to review and give their pov earlier on, but they never take the time out)
