Client Relations in Software Development - Insights from a Developer

After several years of experience in development, when I look back at the very beginning and my expectations, as someone who wanted to be a programmer since elementary school, I can say that the reality is different from everything I imagined.

An introvert tends to be more reflective and introspective and may feel more comfortable in quieter, more solitary environments. On the other side, extroverts tend to be outgoing, talkative, and energetic, and they often thrive in group environments.

The On-Call Experience – Managing Urgent Incidents as a Lead Software Developer

Yes, there are some benefits since being on call is paid extra and you can make good money, but it also presents many challenges to your private life.
