Recycled Code By Dilbert.
Senior Software Engineer:
It is rare to work on a truly new project. Most projects are variations on an existing product, and much of your time will be delving into pre-existing code (usually poorly written) to fix problems or modify it in some way.
This is not necessarily all bad. The work can be very challenging, and you often learn new tricks or ways of doing things.
Much of your time will be spent in meetings, where insignificant details are debated for hours. Dilbert accurately portrays an engineer's life.
May 2014
Senior Software Engineer:
Pros: The freedom of work and to express your thoughts.
Cons: Lake of management, extream workload.
May 2014
Senior Software Engineer:
Do not work at same company more than 2 years in beginning of your carrer.
