Profit, reduce costs is all what corporate business is concerned about. Young programmers are just another resource for these giants, who help them acheive their so called targets.
Corporate IT structure is all bullshit. Here you don’t learn anything related to programming. Here you just grow up the ladder and make some good retirement plans. The culture in here will just kill the passion inside a budding programmer.
Though being passionate about programming, writing clean codes and choosing your favorite language to code in your spare time, when you enter a corporate world having no other options, all the passion gradually fades. Things changes very soon. You tend to adapt to the crappy culture. Once inside this world, it is kind of difficult to get out and live for your passion.
Those who dare to think different always ends up quitting such manager-ass-kiss jobs and live for what they dream. It’s always duifficult to take such decisions. But it’s a now or never situation. Dare it now and may be you succeed or fail. But there is always a feeling of satisfaction that you did what you love. And its always true, if you love what you do, success will surely not so far away from you.
So… does this mean that you are actually going to stop being a corporate drone and start doing whatever it is you’re passionate about? Or is it just another rant?
