Basically you want to be an individual contributor?

You still work with other people, take part in meetings etc. My condition is that there's no co-worker interaction.

Trading, watch lot of videos, it’ll take couple of years but you should be able to learn and earn from trading.

Yeah, this option is there. I have a friend who started trading right after college, and now makes 20LPA gains from it. Are you aware of any other option?

Folks, I've realised that I am not good at working in a team. I start feeling inferiority complex, and superiority complex whenever I'm in a team. I start comparing myself with others as soon as I am put in a team.

I'm exploring other career options where I don't need to interact with people, and be answerable to anyone else but myself.

Do you have any in mind? One obvious choice is stock market trading. Anything else?

Welcome to Software Engineers's Private Community

It will be helpful to me whoever see this post and comments your respected opinions on my situation.

I am ome of the regular corporate employees of India who is earning 3.6LPA in reputed MNC working on Java support. As I need assistance on my career and don't know where to ask, posting here . So below are the options I wanted to do but I am confused where and what to start.
1) Should I upskill more on Java only 
2) Should I need to switch to any other domain like AWS, Azure, cybersecurity 
3) Should I need to do any other integrated course which will be available in platforms like Upgrad.

Why these options means, I need to earn a decent salary par with Industry. 
These are the random options in my mind and I am unable to choose one thing. Due to this I am stuck in my career and my friends are earning more than me.

Career dilemma

Welcome to Ask Grapeviners's Private Community

I am in IT. Coding n all that. But i think I’m meant for something else. I’m more of a artistic person than logical(i guess). I prefer fixed rule/law based work than spontaneity (except in humor. I'm humorous ).

I won’t be leaving IT anytime soon, but i need suggestions on what suits me. Guys tell me no🙏🏼

Career switch?

Welcome to IT Company Discussion's Private Community

I'm thinking that I haven't utilised my full potential and left behind from folks around me . 
Right now I'm 27 and earning 22LPA as an SDE. 
I'm constantly worried how can I earn better or make some skills which can bring some money too as IT industry is not stable. 
So what could be best for me to do : 
My strong point is if I focus on one thing I can put more efforts into that work. 

The options that I could think: 

1. Work on my tech skills and get into High paying IT job .
2. Pick one Govt exam and get any govt job . I'm thinking of SEBI grade A exam .
3. Pick up any skills like video editing start freelancing.
4.Prepare for MBA that might help me in longer run in corporate . 


Guys can you suggest which one area should I select and why . As if I focus on more than one I won't be able to fullfill any.

Welcome to Product Managers's Private Community

Hey Grapeviners, 

I need some serious help. 

Bit about myself - just graduated this month and working as an APM at a seed stage startup. I have 1.5 years of product experience and 3 years of overall experience. 

Lately, not sure why but I am loving what engineers do. Closely working with them, and I guess it's nostalgic for myself. Because I did coding for 6 months and moved on for some reason. So, I understand how tech actually works. Have got good feedback regarding this. 

At the same time, I am not really finding the true value of what I am doing everyday. Feels a void inside. 

Also, I am not able to discuss all these things in person with someone, because I fear that they will judge me after doing internships for 3 years, I still haven't figured out my career. Such a loser I am. 

I have been thinking about starting coding again and maybe switching to a coding job in the next 6 months maybe. But again it would be tough for me as I only got weekends for me to learn all this stuff. 

What do you all experienced folks suggest? What should I do? 

Please comment if you can help🙏

Switching from PM to Engineer

Hi All,

I Joined this Irish-American tech consulting company  in 2021 with a 130% hike & 3.8 YOE. 
I learnt a lot of new things and made some really good connections within 1.5 years.Now the work has been saturated to a point where I no longer write code , but only review it while approving the prs of juniors. Also I don't like the way the people at the client side run the project. 
Even if I ask for a change in a project I know for a fact that either it will take at least 6 months or the other project will be mostly like be support work.  
Please help me come up with a polite reason that's not about higher education or salary. 
I have an offer from Deloitte and TCS currently with a 50 % hike.

Welcome to Personal Finance's Private Community

Hello community,
I have 5 YOE 
Current CTC: 25 Lpa
Working with MNC in bangalore, unmarried 
Apart from this i have 7Lkhs of Auto loan left which was of 4 years, I don’t wish to prepay that. 

Do you have any suggestions if I want to quit job market in coming 10 years and do something of my own or attempt something remote coz I don’t see myself in bangalore in coming years.

How am I doing till now?

Hi,
I have almost 8 YOE in software development. I was in my comfort zone and spent 6.5 years in a service based Indian MNC on a legacy project, where I only did what was assigned. I don't think I have good skills in the technology I was working on. 

Then I switched and I wasn't informed but when I got into the new company which did pay me much better, my technology got changed. Now earlier I was working on a very highly used technology, but now I am on a niche technology which is less used and might disappear in say 10 years.

I am worried about the future.
I don't know if I should go back to the technology in which I was working earlier (C#.net), or learn a newer tech like data science or AI and try to start fresh or continue with the one I am working on(a Telecom billing solution).
Can you please suggest to me the path?

Welcome to Indian Startups's Private Community

Hi, I am a 21yr old interested in Talent Acquisition as a career path but I am also interested in making a lot of money (50LPA+) as I progress in the field. 

I’ve done my research using Glassdoor & Levels.fyi but I want to hear from real people on whether such a salary is possible in Talent Acquisition specifically at Director or Sr. Manager Level? (so like 10-15 years down the line for me). I know HRBP pays more but I can’t be arsed to plan parties (employee engagement) or keep attendance trackers (performance review), I enjoy matching talented people with the right companies more.
