Hi all,
I am currently working in an Indian MNC in production support for the past 3.8 years.I am interested in working in IT field.
But, i am really worried about a long term IT carrier in India. as it is very difficult to become a technical architect or
senior
java architect by working in a service company.
Also in Indian service companies after some span of time, people tend to move into management roles like Project Manger etc
where the work is purely non-technical. If one chooses to stay in technical role itself, then he will be confined to the
same salary/ very little pay hikes.
Also getting into product companies like Google,Yahoo etc.is very difficult, especially for people like me because it has
been almost 3.5 years i am away from development
I am sure if one wants to become a technical/senior architect in any technology, then he/she has to migrate to either the
US,UK or Australia(I am not sure) where opportunites are more and also one can hope to get good salary.
Unfortunately, in the current scenario post-recession many western countries are practising protectionism which means it
is going to be really difficult for people like me to pursue a technical carrier there.
I am really worried about this.
Can you people please advise / help me in this regard?
Thanks,
Raghu
