Looking to switch from web development to something else
Ive been doing web development for some time I was an intern for 4 months and an employee for 6, didnt like the company (it was a corporate company working with legacy code old devs no document and ancient tech) and I realised another field might be more aligned with my preferences (not like we have choices anyway but still).
Im just starting to research Network engineering, I like it cause it is more hands on and physical something that my programming job really lacked Ive done IT job at a major tech store I used to advise, build and support gaming and workstation pcs and the love for hardware always stayed with me.
there are also job opportunities for CNC programmers and PLC programmers I just heard about these from my friends in other fields.
should I make the switch? looking for advice or personal experiences
