It becomes difficult to manage with kids and both parents in tech high demanding job. Basically looking for a role where I don’t have to worry about work while at home. #hardware I am in hardware design verification role at the moment. TC : 250k
I have the same question
Validation but you get treated like disposable
DV is in general a stressful job.
Become a PM
Is becoming a PM less stressful?
I'd say it's a whole less stressful as you yourself are not doing the design or testing, but you have to be good at communicating and rallying the team.into delivering. Also comes down to what company you're joining. PM in Amazon and you're fkked. PM is some other companies with better WLB - Microsoft, Google to some extent life gets easier. Also as PM your opportunity to WFH or remote roles totally goes up as many companies don't need PMs to come into office.
This is exactly my situation right now, willing to give up money but to have a good life
Yes like part time 20 hr jobs
I am a mom of 2 toddlers and a HW Design Engineer and feel the same…
