Hi everyone,

I have a question regarding an career transition

I’m a 23-year-old 2025 B.Tech CSE graduate, currently working as an SAP B1 Functional Consultant (~5 months). While working, I realized my interest lies more in Data Engineering, and I’ve upskilled in SQL (beginner to advanced)

I’m planning to shift into a Data Engineer role—is this transition realistic at this stage? Does my current experience add value, and what skills should I focus on next?

Thanks in advance for your insights.

Crying for my RSUs….started at my company about 6 months ago and got some RSUs split over 3 years. Turns out the stock price at time of my hiring (which is what was used to calculate the number of shares over the three years) was the highest it’s ever been. Stock price has been cut in half since then, along with my RSU value. 😭 how do I cope?
