Risky ? yes but not extreme as I have already built my network and skillset throughout the years so I am confident I could start over again if I fail. To really move out from the middle income trap, certain risks have to be taken.

i was 10 years back, but can treat that as obsolete knowledge and experience, as i stop programming for close to 8 years now.

Any project managers like you who are from non software engineering background, or even non IT backgrounds?

Well it depends on individual

Some think it is a ripoff, while some will say it is normal or the path to success

But when you see the other part of the earth does not promote such culture you will start to feel they are ripping us off

Nevertheless, come to the end I feel that it is because there are people willing to be ripped off that is causing this

Ah that guy may be just starting out and still young as well. Maybe those working hours stated are due to own extra effort to OT, or maybe current period have more project load and it will lighen up soon. Or do u all have other meaning in regards to the hours?
