Top 10 Great Things about a Programming Career in IT and being a programmer.

If you are a gifted computer programmer, there’s no doubt you’ll become a great software engineer. But if this is not the case, why should you be one of those people spending all day typing at a keyboard making the machine do what you want?

If you strive and don’t really care about computers all that much, then software engineering will not be a good choice, because in order to be good, you need to spend countless, countless hours refining your craft, keeping up with the industry at large, getting to know every single little detail you should know to do your work properly.

Passion is one key ingredient of being good in any profession.

YOU WILL LEARN EVERY DAY
Every day you’ll be presented with new challenges. You’re an engineer working on potentially very complex problems.

You need to know how to figure things out, and if you don’t, you need to learn it on the job.

You are expected to be learning every day, and this is awesome as you’re not stagnating in the job market but building up lots of experience as the time passes. Valuable experience for your company, other companies if you decide to switch jobs, or even for yourself if you want to try going indie.

Being required to learn every day can either be frustrating, or very exciting. It all depends on your mindset.

IT’S A PROFESSION IN HIGH DEMAND
I don’t know a single developer that’s good and without a job or something to do. Good developers are in high demand. You might not find a job for a top or famous company, but local companies are desperate to find talent.

You can pick you own journey.

You can move to the Silicon Valley and join a top company, get a very high salary and spend the days with smart people building the next big thing.

You don’t have to move to Silicon Valley to find a job as a developer, especially as a Web Developer, one of the professions that is more open to remote working.

BEING ABLE TO WORK REMOTELY
Remote working, even for just a few days a week, makes for a good work/life balance.

It’s not allowed in all the environments, but remote working is a perk that’s very well suited to software development.

If you are one of those developers that want a 100% remote job, then you are basically given the choice of living anywhere you want, with a decent internet connection.

No need to waste time commuting, having the problem of finding something good to eat during the day, being forced by office politics and rules to leave at some specific time of day, or - worse - waiting until people decide it’s time for leaving to avoid being the first out and sending the “wrong message”.

All you need is a good internet connection and some quiet place in your house (a dedicated room is highly recommended) and you can sit there, do your best work, and take time off as needed. Maybe you like walking the dog at 11:00 AM, and in some places, that’s totally allowed to pick your own hours, as long as you perform the job you’re expected to do.

GOOD PAY AND ECONOMIC BENEFITS
Software development is one of the jobs that - depending on your responsibilities and how good you are at your job - generally comes with a good pay.

As a remote employee, you can choose to work for a richer country and take advantage of the economic benefits of doing so. Of course, this depends a lot on the options available to you.

If you choose to be a freelancer, that’s another field where companies are willing to spend good money on talent.

You will likely be paid average in your first few jobs, however.

YOU HAVE THE OPTION TO GO INDependent
Say you work 10 years for a company and one day you “go crazy” and decide to leave your job because it does not satisfy you anymore. Or you get laid off, or the company closes down.
