Current senior in Comp Sci here - I'd say a good portion of my classmates just want a cozy job doing programming for some enterprise company. They know CS degree pays well, like an engineering degree. For myself, I also just want a cool, less stressful corporate/enterprise job. Maybe in 5 years I can see myself doing some startup or SaaS business or something.
Then again, I go to a state school and a lot of my classmates (if not all) are not super into programming scene(like maintaining a GitHub, doing side projects out of school, etc)

- eikenberry 11y agoI would not describe corporate/enterprise jobs as less stressful, based on my experiences the opposite is true. I've found the best niche is mid-sized companies where you have a better chance of finding someplace where you can actually contribute in a meaningful way, get paid decently and not have to spend more time ass kissing than working.
