Hi blinders I came to know about this app today from my friend and honestly it's a gem. I got a call from the director of my company after today's stand up call and he asked me to connect from my personal device. I smelled something fishy. And the next thing I heard from him was today will be your last day and rest will be explained by the HR person. So I was a developer in Morgan Stanley Montreal. Sadly, there were very few days where I have really enjoyed coding in the past 3 years of being a developer. Now that I'm back in the market, I feel like I should try something other than development jobs. I have a total of 6+ years of experience in IT, where 3 years I worked as data warehouse developer and later came to Canada to do my masters in financial analytics hoping to get into data science and business analytics. But fortunately or unfortunately I couldn't get into that field and my career pivoted towards backend development. Now 3 years after into development, I still feel like I'm not good at this. So I'm hoping to get a job that I'll really look up to doing everyday. Things I felt like I would enjoy are analysis the data and building something out of it. Product management role where I can interact with users and bring in a change to the product. So I'm hoping that my next role wouldn't be of a developer. Any help or advice will be greatly appreciated. Note :. I have a PR in Canada TC : 99k + 10% bonus Years served in current company: 1.5 years SDE experience: 2.5 years Data engineering experience: 3 years Degree : Masters Severance : 4 weeks compensation, 4 weeks health and dental benefits, 2 weeks RRSP compensation #layoff #referral
