I've worked on latest tech stacks like golang, nodejs, python etc in my career and loved them Is it a good idea to join .net based companies Ps : I've worked on Java also & i particularly don't like that boilerplate language, but opportunities with good pay of Go/Node/Python are very less Should I wait or lower my standard to take whatever opportunities are available given market conditions Given uncertainty in the world and wars all over the place, is there any possibility that tech market will improve TC : 0 Yoe : 3.5 Loc : india & they are some US/UK based series B-D startups #engineering #software #swe #java #python #go #microsoft #google #netflix #hiring #layoff
Never a good thing. Easier to be removed and have that work done offshore somewhere else. FWIW, I see a ton of roles that have Go / Golang listed.
Being in India We're that offshore centres of cost cutting I don't want to join them but idk there are very less opportunities, not getting much response
.net is great. It's a modern language that is great to code in. Assuming .net 6+ and it's not that different to kotlin.
Pay is low tho
Surprised with the recommendation here. .net is a very modern language and learning it will make you more rounded as an engineer. Still tons of development in . Net especially in banking and medical. I would definitely go for it.
It doesn't really matter how modern the language is if it's popularity is declining.
C# is a growing language. What are you talking about?
Don't go to .net work most startups look at it with disdain
Most legitimate startups probably shouldn’t care..?
.NET is great. Best compile time language I've used. Got the strong typing features of java with the looser syntax of python. It's also a growing language with tons of support, well documented, and new features getting released often.
Should avoid joining a startup choosing .NET, probably some joke founding engineers
My impression is that .NET was more for enterprise companies and there is work for it, but not sure totally what the deal with the current state of things is. I would be surprised if a startup used .NET unless the engineers there just knew it. So if you want to work on more enterprise large applications for larger companies it doesn't seem like a bad idea to get into.
No. Had my experience, it was bad. Especially if it is at a startup where infra is still being built.
One is an UK based startup with <20 peeps, offering remote work Another is some US based startup with Java and .net offering remote (also wlb is good as per employees) But why tf someone will choose .net in 2024 Should I wait for market to improve?
If you have the choice then wait it out.
