Quite a few years ago, most developers choose IT as a good start to grow up, earn money and become a boss soon after. That's a reason why many IT developers retire after 30 years old. Even worst, if they haven't promoted to a post of manager in that age, they prepare to drop out of his company, burn their bridges behind them with the hope to change their life, such as Stock Exchange, Trading... Some developers take a Master course in another field like MBA just after graduation or join the first company not long ago. This is very common in Vietnam.
Vietnamese people has strength in Math background, one of important factors to make a good developer. However, it’s not enough. Hard-working, persistence, good attitudes, passion, energy… are all that sum up to good performing developer. In the developing countries like Vietnam, China…, people has tendency to choose the less hard working job but high earning professional. Having worked for IT industry for a couple of years, people will feel the stress in doing software with pretty tightening schedule. Normally, developers have to work more than 8 hours a day to get the job done, especially the projects that usually go down the drain.
Most developers do not notice that if they don't have the so-called "passion" to work on something, they cannot success in any area of business, not in addition to IT only. People of all kinds run into same problem as they think that they come to work for earning money mostly. In fact, in any kinds of job, people always find the fun in it to get the job done.
