  1. you should have explained about what you mean by the wrong person in CS and the right person. as far as I know as a CS first year student , most of CS students are doing the major just cuz of high salary and to get into big tech, non of them enjoys learning heavy math just to complete the credits and get rid of it. it is pretty hard if you cannot handle any future risk then do not do it.

  2. The problem with the CS degree is that the powers that be at a company have unreasonable expectations of programmers because they don't understand the background of a computer professional. They think that a programmer can do business analysis, doling out assignments without a spec.

  3. Need advise how can i get into another field without going to college again? I graduated with a CS degree and still unemployed. Im burned out always updating my skills for nothing such a waste of time.

    Please help. 😢

  4. Self learning is the way to go in my opinion. I’m at university right now and the majority of my practical experience/ applicable skills were from self learning 🤷‍♂️

  5. I am enrolling for a CS degree at WGU. I am 23 with 6 years of experience in software. Started programming at 13. This stuff just comes more naturally to me. I didnt get a degree due to cost but now at least enough to fund a this very specific degree at this very specific school. Just seems like the right thing to do. It will fill in knowledge gaps and be a boost to a resume. I do think you should only do if it if you love working with computers. I've worked with CS majors who taught me A LOT but I've also worked with CS majors who barely got by. It does feel like one of those fields where passion is king. I just got lucky by discovering it early tbh, I am so fortunate and grateful for that.

  6. If you want to be a software eng now days you absolutly need a degree, the golden days are gone and where i work the resumes of peoples without a master degree are put in the trash(i'm not kidding even if you have experience)

  7. Self-study isnt anywere near as effective as learning in a formal education environment and we know because as the number of coding bootcamp grads and self-taught candidates increased, complains about new developers lacking key CS skills has increased with it.

  8. Year-over-year change in the US for software development positions are -44.8 % are down according to indeed data. And finding a job as an entry level developer is a nightmare.

  9. Should I get a cs degree or go to a boot camp? A brutally honest and realistic answer? I failed university at 20 and now I just switched my major 5 times at 22 in community college. Rn I feel like a tunnel with no end? i might graduate college at 25-26 and if I need a college degree, How do I avoid using student loans?
