High Pressure and Lots of Growth in First Year
Forward Deployed Software Engineer • Current Employee
New York, New York, United States
February 13, 2022
Pros: - Most rapid growth in a role in 5 years of software experience.
- Most results and business-impacting work on my resume.
- High stakes and high pressure means I've been required to grow. I now have many stories about difficult situations and how I handled them well and poorly and learned from them. This is great for job interviews, builds the skills of a team lead and manager, and just makes me a more effective worker.
Cons: High-pressure, results-driven satisfying client demands means intermittent waves of pressure, leading to overtime. (Managers often encourage taking time off after working overtime.)

Pros: You can choose to be as technical or nontechnical, as intense or chill, as rigorous or speedy as you want it to be. With some political know-how, the entire landscape becomes yours to navigate, and you can simply pick and choose what skills you want to grow.
Cons: You can get put into some really, really, really bad teams, and in that case, your technical skills will atrophy beyond recognition.
