IT Certifications and Careers (Official Discussion Thread)

It depends on the company and what you do. As of now I dont mind it because i dont have to travel to any customer sites. I was told there was 50% travel but i havent traveled yet and probably rarely will. All the work is done remotely.

I would say try it out if you want to. From people i know who have done consulting and travel alot some like it because they get to see different places.

100% co sign all of this word for word.

My first 2 months all they had me doing was lab work and studying to get certified.

Damn, time for me to step it up and get it done.

No more excuses in 2019 and beyond.

Been moving our entire application into it for the past 8 or so months. It's been a hassle just because of our system's architecture.
