Suggestions for leaving software engineering

I've been working in Accenture over 1.8 , I'm facing lots of toxicity, politics in my daily work now these days. I've been through a mental trauma as I was under the process of PIP ( Performance Improvement Program) , the clear reason behind it is boot licking, me & one of my colleagues both were into this process, I performed well enough & got 3.5/4 in tasks so they retain me , but she got 0/4 ...for that reason they terminate her. But after PIP in the office they're completely cornering me , they're not treating me as before.... I don't know what to do , I'm thinking to switch, but some says it's too early. I'm still under so much confusion. If anyone help me in any way , it'll be thankful :)

I have done btech from cse, and got placed in a service based company. I just wanted to know what are the other options available other than being a software engineer. Actually I didn't explore the career options myself, always choose whatever is in the trend. But now I think it's time I can choose the right path for my career or atleast give a try. I don't knowy passion n all, good at academic till 12th grade, then average in graduation.

Hi Everyone, I'm trying for a job in bangalore for over 6 months now, was suffering from anxiety attacks so started taking medicine. People laid off way later than me have started with their new jobs and are happy yet I'm still struggling here looking for a job, they are getting hikes and I'm just looking to get hired. Is it time that I should give up engineering and pursue other domains?? Because Engineering used to excite me and how my luck has treated me and how much unnecessary problems I'm facing, I'm doubting if I should give up now. I want to know the honest opinion. I ve been upskilling and coding , but not getting any interview https://drive.google.com/file/d/17QsEHqFySTsYyu7ML_sNpykeWuHNFsPk/view?usp=sharing my resume

My friend (who is SDE-I in a startup) and I were having a discussion and we both felt that software engineering is probably not the best career for us. So I want to ask, what other career options would you suggest for people like me, who have done graduation in CSE and stuck in this software role?

Will probably be offered Technical Architect role as per the job description and current profile. Presently at 25lpa and being asked to move to Bangalore for 31lpa (have not completed HR round yet) Did I lowball myself? Not sure which band this role would fit in. Any expert opinion(s) from gentle folks?

I am 26 years old software engineer from Bengaluru having pretty good salary but was thinking of starting some business, what do you all do and what do you guys suggest?

I am 22yo and just graduated from a tier 3 college with Btech degree. Currently placed in a startup as a Frontend Engineer CTC 7LPA remote. I am confused should I prepare for masters and do that or should I work hard in FE and switch after 1-2 year for better pay. And what one should do? Masters in Cs or MBA , I know both are different but still confused.

Hi Grapeviners, I would like to hear some suggestions on what should I do next. I am an non-IT engineering graduate, got into an MNC (witch) for 3.5LPA, was onboarded for a support role after clearing all mandatory trainings and tests, where majority of my work revolves around filling Excel sheets and scheduling support calls. After a lots of struggle I was relieved from that project(after 1year 5 months). After that I joined a python automation script development team My current python team is going very well, i get to dirty my hands with code in python. It's been 6months in python team. Over all 2years spend in same company, when I try to switch for other company, I feel like I'm no where close to their requirements, my only skill is python application automation using respective modules, with months of experience. Most of the roles I see are having different different combinations of tools and technologies. I also know medium level DSA. Please suggest what should I do so that I can switch companies.

I want to understand if you are also satisfied with your compensation?

I’m from Tier 3 city, software engineer, 7 YoE. I work with great team member and they really love their work but I’m not that passionate. I take ownership of my work but don’t feel like I belong here. I’m not good in coding and SDET by profession. I didn’t save enough money in my first 3 years of career, switched back to back from 2020 onwards and recently moved out of India and now I think I have enough money. I always wanted to settle in my native place, Prayagraj in UP unlike my colleagues and most of my friends who enjoy to be in metro city. I somehow feel I have very less needs and if I shift to Tier 3 city, I’d have less expenses and I don’t have to buy houses as I already have home. At the same time, I feel may be I feel FOMO 5-10 years down the line I left good job, lifestyle. Additionally, I’m looking to get married, none of IT sector girls want to live in Tier 3 and rightly so as they put so much effort so they want to live/settle in metros mostly. 8 years back I took GRE, put all efforts to do MS from US. 2 years back, I got this opportunity to live that life but I feel I don’t enjoy hustle culture/ city lights. Don’t like cafe hopping or anything. I feel at peace when I visit my hometown, my paternal/maternal houses, Varanasi Ghats. I have 1.3 Cr INR but given I’m just 30. As per Finfluencer or by my sane calculation, this is not sufficient. Post marriage, this is certainly not enough. Should I take a break and assess or just keep pushing myself to earn more and then go for FIRE. Hoping for constructive feedback.
