IT Jobs in Bangladesh
People of IT Sector in Bangladesh often suffers from Job insecurity and this mostly happens in case of small companies. There are hundreds of small software companies in Bangladesh and their business depends mostly on the online bidding sites (i.e. Odesk, getAcoder, etc).
But highly skilled and experts don’t prefer to work in those companies as organizational structures are not well formed and stable in those companies. And from my personal experience I can say those small company often fails to utilize their skill and knowledge.
Working under a junior is very dangerous and harmful for anyone’s career and also those who knows very little but thinks himself a ‘GURU’ are the most dangerous insects for this field. During my last three years of professional career I found several of them. None of them were technically sound and skilled enough to deliver quality solution to the clients. Thus we are loosing overseas trust day by day. Those people are not being loser only but spoiling our total industry as a whole.
And if any developer want to shows his creativity and knowledge they are being terminated. This is only because if any developer or software engineer want to follow a sound architecture of course it will take minimum more time than usual. But the company urges for immediate release of the project so that their bank accounts get more healthier in short time. But they can’t think they are getting the money but loosing a very big amount in the long run.
I strongly stand to protect them. Otherwise total IT industry will fall and we will never be able to turn back if we loose this now.
