I hate my job and hate blind
Hey all, I need an advice from the community if I should work on my SDE profile or switch to Product manager role (thinking about this role as they are not coding heavy and still connected to technical side) I got piped from Amazon since 8+ months (after working for 1.5 Years). I am an average SWE who joined Amazon after graduating. I don’t think I can code much(I can understand the LC’s and solve them in layman language but it is difficult for me to write it in Java or Python) , I can also do bug fixes and work on defined small tasks. For me it is still tough to get solution working for leetcode easy in more than 2 hour. My manager’s perspective before I left was I need to work on my coding basics & develop more skills. He also added amazon is fast pace and wont give time to learn but I would survive in lot of other companies where they can give some time to learn. I still want to stay technically connected to Computer Science field so should I still try harder and stay as an SDE or switch. If selecting other please comment which field and why? Thank you all. #tech #swe #productmanagement #career
Stay as an SDE for smaller companies with better development opportunities
Agree I think find a job to non tech company where they don't expect you to ground running on 1st week or month. Also, you get breather to learn in between the thing that you will be working on.
Join Vanguard I was also in ur shoes. Here they work on employee development a lot.
Makes sense. Thank you. I will ping you for reff when I see an opening there.
