What is it like working as a Technical Writer?
August 2022
They say it's a job that'll see you through to retirement, but I don't owe them that.
Technical Writer in Des Moines:
Pros: There's a lot of flexibility around my work hours, I'm trusted to get work done, and compensation is at least average.
Cons: Due to recent staffing issues and lack of commitment to retention from PFG, my workload has doubled while my pay has stagnated. The promotion I was promised in the spring is being locked behind a financial freeze. Meanwhile, my old supervisor left and doubled her pay.
April 2022
Labour of love.
Technical Writer in Perth:
Pros: Great weather. Many small businesses growing their company and market presence.

Highly Satisfactory Remote Work.

Pros: I currently work from the comfort of my home. Since I am familiar with the area, I particularly like being within walking distance of restaurants and groceries. Interaction with pets is a wonderful bonus.
