Hi Fishes,
Need your experience. I am Java developer and I like what I do? Can we survive 30 years just doing programing and not moving to management? How is the life of a programmers in service based companies after 15-20 years of exp?

'Just by coding' doesn't work for even 5 years (let alone 30) 😅
The more experience you gain the lesser coding there will be.
But you can stay on the technical side (I hope that's what you meant)
When you're a Lead Software Engineer that's where you can actually go to management or stay on the technical side.
Technical roles would be Principal Software Engineer, Architect, Chief Architect (in that order)
From a coding perspective, as a junior you'll be working in parts of files and as you grow you'll start working on modules, folders, the entire project and by the time you get into Architecture you'll be working on the entire ecosystem of the software. (Project and server/cloud)
Note: This will vary between companies. Smaller companies bigger roles, bigger companies smaller roles.
Anyway best of luck with whatever you decide to do ✌🏻

Hi ! Looking for advice. I’ve been with a company in BC for 2.5 years, started support role, promoted to smb AE a year ago. salary is 65k with uncapped commission. We recently did layoffs, I was kept however there have been changes & meeting quota has become difficult & we have a way heavier workload. The perks are amazing but I need to make more money. Do you think I could get a role with more money with my experience that’s fully remote even in this “recession”..thoughts?

So as a 30ish yo with a government/PE/tech background and CIPM/CIPP… I’m finding privacy work is just much easier and interesting than other kinds, but still pays plenty well.

I have 15 YOE all in health IT consulting in T2, mostly running large technology implementations for providers. I’m tired of the consulting grind and am contemplating going to industry. The easy path of an IT exec position with a typical client of mine (large health systems) does not appeal to me. I find the idea of going to more innovative companies (big tech, health tech startups, provider or payer disrupters) more appealing.

Any data points, thoughts, advice on how to exit?
