SI vs EU

When you are changing your working environment from System Integrator to End User, probably one word says it all... BORING!

System Integrator environment is a very challenging job. We work very hard to meet the deadline and deliver the project, facing new technology and yet very confidence to do it. Very limited research hours to deploy some complex and high-end products, and we are still enjoying the pace.

No doubt, End User environment sometime gets very good compensation such as bonus, classy-farty meeting with good food, free business-class flight, and so on so forth. The package might be interesting, but you gotta be ready for a prison-way working culture. The pace is extremely slow and you definitely get bored. All the non-business-related websites will either be blocked or monitored. Everything needs to follow the procedures and yet you might not get a quick response. Furthermore, get yourself ready for all the applications regardless of online submission or hard-copy.

I’m not complaining, but somehow I have to take time in order to fit into the environment and culture. Since they granted you so much free time, why don’t we fully utilize it and make some studies and probably get some very good certifications and make a turning back to SI someday?

Yeah… Keep a place me! Cheers!
