My top 7 reasons to be a software engineer in 2021 and onwards

My top 7 reasons to be a software engineer

Everyone has their own personal reason to be a software engineer. I enjoy creating something that will be seen and used by thousands of people while doing it in any part of the world.

My top 7 reasons I specified in the video below.

  1. Money and Benefits
  2. Work from home/flexibility
  3. Culture
  4. Impact (engineers can turn nothing into something special)
  5. Fun and rewarding
  6. Forgiving
  7. Get Rich

What is your main reason to be a software engineer?

It would have been nice if you had those 7 reasons written done so the "article" wasn't just a link to your youtube video.
