someone in the same boat as me Laugh | :laugh:

after college i went to work at a big services company thinking about the various fields i would get to shift to within the company if i don't like a particular field. i did get offers a small product development companies but i turned them down because i thought they were small.

now i am repenting my decision.Sigh | :sigh:

tell you what prst123, in my opinion its down to just 1 thing, are you tech savy and want to code/design for as long as you wish to?? if yes, go for product.

If you prefer travelling for on-site work,flying around,seeing the world and making money, and climbing up the management asap go for a services company.


work at a services company would be very boring for someone who prefers to code. they ask you to learn boring middleware, kick you around depending on the market demands, at times whatever you learnt in a month or two for a project would never ever be put to use by you after that project... and if you survive they will make you a project manager. the only challenge at a services company once you have settled in is completing a project for a client in an incredibly short period of time.


i can't tell you anything about product development because i never gotta go there yet. But i am trying my best to get out of services and go back home to coding Wink | ;)


btw about the pay at product companies, maybe it seems less at the beginning, but if you can prove yourself to be a really good developer you would get a really good salary and all the fame and recognition you can ask for. And if you decide to start your own company years down the lane and come up with a kickass product, you would be rolling in cash or rolling in fame on the internet or maybe both.Big Grin | :-D
