Do you have a background in programming? You're not going to make as much as you do now as a consultant, as a junior developer, which is what a boot camp-type program will qualify you to take.

No formal background. Did an intro class and know the basics well enough to do small tweaks and debug stuff. Not worried about the money.

Background is in business and have been doing functional ERP work.

Thanks. I have a Pluralsight account now because I have a MSDN/VS sub.

Have found it too basic - it’s good for very early fundamentals and then deep dives in very particular topics, but none of the courses seem to cover a lot of the common development patterns used in actual application building.

PwC can you take on entry level coding tasks while working on your current functional projects? This way maybe you can learn to code and not take a huge paycut... Also why the interest in coding?

Code your own projects as soon as you start learning// you will learn so much faster than any paint-by-numbers approach

I’ve tried but teams are not open minded.

Just enjoy the feeling of creating stuff.

After you are stealth laid off, other than job search, what do you do? I assume they won’t give you work and even if they do, you can politely decline?

I’ve been practicing in both big law (many yrs ago) and now in-house for over 10 years. Quite often I struggle because I don’t find work fulfilling. I’ve been in industries that allegedly have greater cause (healthcare) but was eventually disappointed by the corporate bureaucracy and went to a cutting-edge tech company for intellectual stimulation. Still I struggle. Should I try public interest? Not that I don’t need the money but it’s hard to work when I am so detached and find it meaningless
