I was a sysadmin in higher ed and jumped over to consulting. A lot of the roles are going to be more broad than you’re doing today, that’s pretty likely.

Quite plainly Big 4 has a hard time attracting and retaining true technical talent (this recent broad tech downturn aside) so if you want to do technical work and are reasonably articulate you have a good shot.

Hi all, need a suggestion on this problem.
Next company joining date is 7jan2022, but current company last working day is 31jan2022.

I want to join Next company anyhow, but that is not ready to wait till 31jan2022..
Tried to convince current company but they are not ready to release until 31jan2022.
1. I'm thinking to convince Next company again to let me get into Next company. how to convince them if they are not ready to wait.
2. Otherwise What would be there if I leave current company straightaway?

In 2-3 yrs, I'll be faced with decision to continue pursuing career in consulting while helping grow family business on the side (~16 hr workdays) or quit consulting and go 100% with the biz. WWYD?

There’s nothing like waking up to a call on August 1 from my district coordinator telling me that they want to move me from my middle school resource room SpEd position (which I love) to K-5 Setting 3 SpEd position. I told her all the reasons that won’t work for me and even gave her another idea that would require a non-licensed teacher to be moved so I could take her place at the hs. So, I’ll be spending my Monday applying for a new job in another district. How’s your Monday going so far? 😭😔

I've done so well in this new role within the company that they are hiring another person to assist with what I do. I've voiced to my boss that I'd like to manage this department and they indicated that this is the thought for the future. Now they are asking me to train this person while I have my plate full. Is it wrong for me to expect either a promotion or to be paid to train this person?

Hello Friends,

Just need some advice
Currently I am working as QA in automation, yoe : 5.10, but I feel being in QA field wont take me long in career, after 8-9 years I dont know what else is left to learn in this specific domain. You start shifting towards non technical side and become managers at early stage in your career.

I am looking for domain change and confused between two:
1)Data engineer (azure)
2)Devops

Which career path would be good to be relevant in IT for long technical career?
