Agree with you all for UPSC.
Also look at success ratio?
250-300 seats for general category, no age relaxation, +high fees of coaching, and lots of books.
+and if OP is really good at studies, & is consistent, can have patience during preparation.. all the very best to him! 🌟
On the other hand,
100s of product companies that pay well - can do side hustles also. Recession is temporary, 2023 will be great again! Technology is going to stay long term. OP is already an engineer - it's easy for him to move ahead with current skills. Also it depends on personal interests. If OP is in service based company or, is facing low quality work, less interesting work, or bad manager, etc, try switching to Better company
Ask yourself why?
* Do you visualise yourself as an IAS officer/IFS ? ( CAN YOU? )
* Is it due to family, friends, gf? or FOMO effect?
* Is it coming from inside? (Inner calling?)
* Seeking lavish lifestyle? Luxury?
* Seeking respect?
* Do you really want it? Can the same long term goal for life can be achieved by any easy alternative? Or current skills?
* Is it really worth the time?
I would also recommend OP to follow 3-6-9 manifestation techniques that was followed by Einstein and Tesla. They used this techniques to attract their success, work for it. Note: visualisation is most important.

Bro people will motivate you here but be practical you should've done it in early 20s now it would be better if you focus on your IT skills and switch-switch to make money, that'd be a better path, atleast you have some hope there.
Just a note. Do write the reason you want to pursue UPSC. Keep it private to yourself if you want but it should be your honest reason. It will work as a booster whenever you'll feel low and trust me you are going to feel low. All the best..

Just completed 26 last month..and same thought keeps coming in my mind but lets give it a try. Its never too late
It's never too late. If you can do without leaving current job, go for it!
Yes, I want to prepare with job only.
Preparing for UPSC can be hectic but definitely doable. It might need lot of time based planning and dedication. I am sure you would have considered the time frame that it might take but when we plan for best, plan for worst as well. If you can manage with work considering WFH it would be great, but if you are planning to quit make sure you have good contacts in your org. And if possible sabbatical would be great option.
Ps: All the best for future endeavours.

Not impossible, difficult but can try. after some time u can decide , to give yr full 200% u can take a break when it’s time
26 is not late at all ….the only thing while preparing for upsc is …how much passionate you are for upsc….you’ll know where you stand in your first attempt itself….
Nothing is impossible bro, don't listen to negative thoughts (just Focus and go for it) but don't get stuck, if it doesn't work-out as planned(reduce your intensity in UPSC) and, upgrade your IT skills and move-out
its pretty much doable. You have tonplan it in better way.

Also you asked this question to a room full of Software Engineers, Consultants, Product Managers who have been in IT industry for whole their life.
You should also ask the same in the UPSC forums too?
