How much money have yall made from your tech related jobs?
I’m thinking of switching from finance into comp sci. I make good money but it’s a bit stressful. I was wondering if it’s still even viable considering the whole ai stuff going on rn.

you're 20 years too late, its the beginning of the end
Wdym? I’m sure there’s possibilities. At the very least my resume working in finance should help to some degree, right?
>Hey Shane the accountant your resume of doing finance qualifies you for this sys admin job bc numbers, sir
I’m not an accountant bruh
To clarify, I’m 24 and I got lucky working in finance.
I’m paid well and my clients are being very generous to ensure I keep working with them, but the truth is, computers have always been my passion.

>I make good money but it’s a bit stressful
lmao if you think finance is stressful stay away from compsci unless you're really talented.
Really? I think so.
Oh shit. That’s nice
You think so? They’re interlinked.
stay in finance, technology is a pain in the ass
Don't, stay in finance. If you really want to work in tech then become a consultant. Being a code monkey is soulless
But could I make more money? Rn I make 7 figures in finance I was wondering if there’s more potential in comp sci
No
Alright
Okay, I’ll stay in finance. Thanks.
Definitely not now.
Million Indians with visas happy to work for McDonald's wages ruined the industry.
lol, okay. With the advent of ChatGPT I felt that way, too.
Stay in finance, been in IT for 20 years. You will hit a cap. If you want out of finance move towards the business side as a BA or something or if your not a trader go towards Python Dev but stay on the financial side but not IT they are in such high demand because trading desks are looking for QAs that actually know how to build a Py or Conda environment that works and not asking me why there code doesn't work.
finance is just professionally swindling people in a reverse money funnel.
Pre much.
