In my experience, most IT specialists are irritated by routine. Yes, writing code is not the most fun activity and often not as creative as it may seem to newbies. Among other disadvantages is the need to constantly learn, improve your skills. Instead of "lying like a seal" after work - again listen, read, study.

For many, being an IT specialist means being in permanent stress. This has happened to everyone, when what was born in agony is deleted to zero, the deadline is pressing and you are forced to spend the night at the monitor, growing roots in the workplace. By the way, this is connected with another disadvantage of working as an IT specialist - overtime, which happens and often depends not so much on you as on the team. "One for all and all for one" - this is how IT specialists work on a project. Then the team can change and you have to again look for a connection with new people. However, the latter is more likely to apply to "freelancers"; in the staff of a modern advanced company, many of the listed disadvantages can be avoided.

Working in IT is really not the easiest: it requires venezuela telegram data constant concentration, mental effort and is somewhat reminiscent of a game of chess. You often have to deal with questions that cannot be solved “on the fly”. Even after leaving your workplace, you can run through possible solutions in your head all day and still not find the right one.

Problems tend to accumulate like a snowball, especially given the high business need for quick solutions to assigned tasks. Large technical debt, management pressure, administrative and bureaucratic problems - if you don't know how to cope with this, you can easily fall out of love with your job.

To prevent this from happening, you need to pay attention to planning your tasks and processes, communicate more with colleagues, and give feedback. Don't forget about balance with real life, and be able to "let go" of your work at least for the evening. Regular exercise and walks in the fresh air are especially helpful. It's a good idea to have some kind of hobby where you can unwind with friends.
