Who's Who in the world of IT.

No software companies.

Much scope for programmers is not software companies. This is a job in the IT departments of various companies. There is clearly distinguished:.

• 
  1C -ship;.
  


• 
  Work with banks;.
  


• 
  Government agencies;.
  


• 
  The IT department of the enterprise ( industrial, commercial).
  

1C -ship. Yes, 1C -ship in this classification do not fit. But the subject is so extensive that an entire world, independent and very different from the rest of the IT landscape, so I made ​​a theme 1S -workers as a separate item. Most often, they can be found in the accounting business. Their salary is largely dependent on how much they can knock themselves. Proximity to accounting and personal acquaintance with the accountant's help in this matter. In practice, there are also meager salary, and a very decent. Work with accounting, requires, as if to say softer, a different approach and the corresponding character. Often working in the accounting elderly, or just away from the computer. That requires a lot of patience in explaining the program, as well as the ability to carefully calculate the percentage of VAT, depreciation, and etc., etc.. System itself 1C easy to learn, so you can quickly learn and enter the world of IT technologies. 1C provides seminars, certification that allows you to increase your level of knowledge as well as requests by the level of payment.

Jobs in Banks. A large and very specific area of ​​activity. There are necessary expertise. I would not say that this work is interesting. A programmer in a bank is not the main labor force, so a special arrangement with the authorities do not use. Accordingly, often all errors and omissions of other departments blamed on programmers, they say, is ' their' flaws. Yes, and career opportunities for small. Routine and the dog's attitude, why go back to work? . Salaries in some of the best banks in the market, but if you work at a large bank, and the stability of high. Will be strictly enforced labor code will be ' white ' salaries, training courses will be confident in the future.

Among the banking programmers released a separate subgroup of the so-called ' quanta '. This is, perhaps, not so much programmers as mathematicians, analysts. The task of the photon -. analysis of the state securities market. Rays are not so many, and ' weather ' in the IT market they do not. Here I have to mention them because the programmers have always attracted the attention of these works related to applied mathematics: that's really where there is freedom for the mind! .

state Institutions. The older generation is well known to the concept of ' scoop '. State agencies have remained stagnant since the same level. Far from all good hardware, indifference and ' apathy ' symbolic salaries. But there is a ' hearty ' place, but there without dating at all impossible to get. Programming is minimal, mainly support for external development. But there is also an advantage: the stability of reinforced concrete, absolutely dust-free, nenapryazhnaya work. Nothing prevents a penny on the side of. How many are putting up such a position nominally, and themselves while actively ' shabashat '. But most programmers (at least everyone I know) one way or another seek to find a normal job and not sit in this quiet swamp.

The IT department of the enterprise ( industrial, commercial). This is the most common form of the programmer: the development and maintenance of the internal system of factory automation. These units typically consist of several people, at least, a couple dozen people. At these facilities the programmer is not the main labor force, so IT departments fall to finance a residual, but this is a lot for a small department. The work here is usually calm: the development of reporting forms, programming, business process. Not very interesting work, offset by higher wages than in software companies. In this work you can get good experience in maintenance of various systems and the programming of different technologies. You can even knock out the payment for training and attending seminars. Often, as in state institutions, we can ' knock off ' on the side. A good option for beginners.
