i couldn’t deal with the science behind programming. shyt was boring. Rather do a million circuit problems than read about data structures.
and programming was a bit hard for me, at first.
I did better with it in ee but I had already been introduced to it by that point.

Any advice for folks in Boot camp CC , undergrad or grad school working toward tech. I helped a buddy with bread getting his place. He is into the careerist boot camp doing Quality Assurance Automation. I get asked how to prepare etc but I know information changes fast.
I'm inside an academic silo finishing course work. Outside of finishing the last upcoming year of my degree I have idea what's what.

Our division did great numbers for the first half of the year. Looks like that bonus is going to hit different this year 
Finally got some confirmation about the next thing they'll have us working on. I'm already over it. Conduct and employee survey asking about if our work is relevant to the industry, then put us on projects that will see our skills grind completely to a halt. Took them months to come up with some sort of direction for us and it's the wrong one 
. This is the shyt they should be outsourcing - fake development work that doesn't involve actual software engineering skills. Instead they cut contractors, "refocus" efforts, and stick us on this menial shyt.

This popped up on my LinkedIn feed today, some useful info about pay transparency:
#1 - California's pay transparency + public pay reporting bill SB 1162.
Public pay reporting for employers with 250+ employees soon-ish? Yikes, but yup, likely!
Pay ranges on all job postings as early as January 1st for the 5th largest economy in the world. Yup!
Contractor pay reporting? Sounds like this is coming soon.
This one is likely to have a busy month. After a quick stay on the suspense file sidelines, it was already assigned a date to head back to the Appropriations committee for a full vote.
So, Appropriations hearing: August 11th. Must be voted out of Assembly by August 31st. Signature/veto by Governor by September 30th.
We'll be watching this one like a hawk.
#2 - NYC pay transparency bill.
The NYC bill that will require employers to post the salary range on all job postings goes into effect on November 1st.
#3 - New York State pay transparency bill
S9427 is sitting on the Governor's desk and waiting for signature.
Like the NYC law, this will require employers to post the minimum and maximum annual salary or hourly range offered for new hires, transfers, and promotions.
There is an added twist. Employers also have to disclose the job description.

And by happy coincidence, just set up a FAANG interview for next month. Sometime it feels like the only way out of this company is to retire or get firedFinally got some confirmation about the next thing they'll have us working on. I'm already over it.

These Indian contractors are still some trash. My manager pulls me in on a quick zoom. She's like "I need the y-axis range changed for this chart to a max of $90M like for this KPI". Now, there is a single KPI showing the $90M for the current month while the chart displays historically for the past 6 months. I tell her immediately they aren't using the same formulas for the two visuals. We review and not even close!! LOL she goes "I have a lot of emails to send".
Job agreed to pay for the Qlik Business Analyst Cert. It's not the one I wanted, but it's free and "easier" than the data architect one.

Breh chillax, I know you have a lot of down time but remember the only thing that matters is that the check clears.Finally got some confirmation about the next thing they'll have us working on.

Also sounds like you may need a second job.
