why I’m not interested to work in a company anymore
after graduation ( no surprise engineering ) and learning programming I was quite passionate to work in MNC. one reason was, i always loved the idea of being programmer and the right reason was promise of good monthly salary, nice office, onsite and all that social perks it gives you. isn’t that the dream they sold us.
i never cared about what products I’m working on, I was in flow with herd enjoying competitive age I had over my other colleague and occasionally fuelled by motive to get kind of work I believe is better to do, because i chooses it. when it all stops giving me kicks i thought it would be better to join a company with smarter people and indeed i did the same and after 1 more year and fairly good programming experience a new perspective evolved
programming or even technology is just a tool what really count is what you do with it. building an application according to current technology trend is ok but what matters is what exactly you are building , is it a sales team app ?, shopping website ?, recommendation engine ? wouldn’t it be nice to build something that really solve a problem or is a piece of art if not both. or help someone who’s idea in complete alignment with your thoughts.
doing job ( the one you are not doing for it’s cause ) is saying like you know i am afraid of taking financial and social risk of doing anything beyond my comfort zone, you take the risk and pay me i will sit down on the side line and will make fun of you.
