Did the commitment and investment into this profession pay off?
You have to study a lot to become one, so is the paycheck and work difficulty justified?

Network Engineer here

Yes it is worth it. I probably do 5h of real work in a week on my 40h pay period because I automated most of my tasks with scrips.

Also I work remote so I get to work while on the beach or whatever.

It wasn’t easy to get here, hardest is always your first year on the first company, you will get abused, overworked and yelled at. After you get experience you either move to another department or switch to another company and it gets much better from there

Does one need a high IQ to become an engineer or 90-100 can also achieve it?
