How do I get off this ride while maintaining a 100k+ salary somewhere in this economy?

I can do referrals to Qualtrics feel free to DM me here if you either work an engineering or are customer facing.

Hello Folks,
Can you pls advise on which company to go for.
R-Systems : They are providing WFH + clarity on the project and team for which I’ll be working upon.
CTS : No clarity as of now, only thing I am aware is that I’m a part of full stack community.
HCL : Some clarity on the project but less package than other two.
R-Systems and CTS are giving same CTC.
YOE ~8
Skill set : . Net full stack + Angular + Azure

Thanks

I have a very strong networking background and want to break into cloud space. I don’t know much about database and applications. What should be my learning strategy? e.g do AZ103, AWS solution architect, AWS networking certs? Please guide me.

Hi all,

I work in the Centre of excellence for a consulting company. Our CTO wants to prototype an indexing/search app to share docs and he wants to use AWS for the cloud service. I’m looking for some guidance around the basic cloud architecture principles. Can anyone explain high level how the architecture should look like? Thanks in advance

Good morning all I hope all is well. So I'm currently a Computer Engineer (Glorified Help desk support) for the MGM Resorts International Corporate IT office here in Vegas.

I currently have a Bachelor's in Computer Science but want to be Cloud Security Engineer. I'm debating whether to go for second bachelors at WGU in Cybersecurity while self studying Cloud certifications, or doing the Cloud Computing while self studying Cybersecurity certifications. Or just go Masters with IT concentration.

Simple question. Why do Doctors earn so much in a country where access to health services is so difficult ? I don’t mind if they are becoming billionaires. I would just rather have more Doctors paid less. Access is a real issue. If the argument is around better opportunities in the US, this applies to many people, including us.

How do I be a decent manager to a coworker who's upset I've been promoted twice in two years and they haven't? We started out as coworkers, became decent friends after a few good moments, but went back to simply coworkers after they flubbed a few projects and I had to step in to clean up. I'm non-confrontational but year-end reviews are right around the corner and I'm worried about having to act professional to someone who I got too close with and who now hates me.
