I worked in both, work in Product companies are much more fulfilling

I'm guessing less wlb and more opportunities?

Decision Analyst

Yup, mostly true. When work is fulfilling I don’t think WLB matters much but yeah that’s my opinion. You might think differently

Is working for product companies better than working for service based?- Grapevine

Welcome to IT Company Discussion's Private Community

People who've worked in both product based and service based companies, what is the difference?

Product based Vs Service based companies

Software Developer

Considering the following two offers:

IBM
Training location: Bengaluru
After completion: PAN India
Role: Associate System Engineer
Comp: 4.5 LPA with 25k joining bonus.

Product based MNC with 2-5k employees worldwide.
Office in Bengaluru.
Role: Associate Product Engineer
Comp: 9 LPA

If you compare the compensation, then it feels like a no-brainer decision.

But IBM is more recognisable and I feel it might add weight to my resume for future switches.

Passed out in 2023. Only intern experiences previously.

Any advice?

Brand over compensation?

Given the current hiring scenario, is it a good decision to join Service-based company instead of trying till end for Product-based? Also, if I join a Service-based company right now, is it really hard to switch to Product-based in future?

I got a summer internship at Accenture as an Advanced App Engineering Analyst, started yesterday. There are good chances of PPO post the internship and if I get the PPO then my college does not allow me to sit for placements with the exception of very few companies, which would have the most competition. I really want to get into a product-based company for a full-time role. I applied to Accenture since it was a summer internship. 

So, considering the worst-case scenario where I join Accenture as an FTE with no other options, how hard is it to switch to a product-based company? I'm a good learner so I can learn the required skills and already have some unofficial experience with web development and did good on ML and DL courses of my college with good projects to showcase my skills in them.

Please let me know! I'd really appreciate your insights. Thanks

How hard is it to switch from Service to Product companies?

Hello folks,

I am working as an Android developer in service based companies for more than 7 years in Ahmedabad. As there are very few product based companies in Ahmedabad I am planning to relocate to another city to switch to a product based company ofcourse for better compensation. I have applied to many product based companies but I'm not even getting shortlisted for the interviews. There are many other folks in the service based companies who have faced the same thing. Any advice for switching to a product based company would be really helpful.

Switch to product based company.

Currently I am trying to switch from service based company to better environment hopefully product based companies. Thing here is I am not getting any interview calls (I may blame 90days notice) but how product based companies hire… like i am checking naukari. It’s full of consulting companies mostly or service based companies. LinkedIn I could see some job posts but not actually hearing back  from them(maybe skill issue) . So like from where these product companies hire ??? Anyone know any leads.

Where to get referrals or interview calls

Without going to client companies.
Also it'll be helpful if you guys can suggest some good product based companies with job security and wlb.
