Fear of missing out is driving some of the job hopping that we are seeing right. Where ever you job, jerks are there in the new organization.

So the questions are….

Good work life balance ?

Happy with work ?

Learning and growing in skills ?

What industry are you working in ? Travel industry always gets hit hard by recession. No industry is “recession proof”, but financial services and health services tend to be robust.

Not the best work life balance I’m on call a lot. Work is eh not really motivated and I feel like I’m wasting my skills. I don’t have much extra time to learn new skills due to always being on call. My free time I spend relaxing I don’t want to stare at a computer 24/7. I’m working in the energy industry right now.

JPM is semi remote, and less innovative. The tech stack Java, SpringBoot and AWS. But I'd do more migration tasks, like dockerize projects and pass them to kubernetes. What would you choose?
