I work remotely at home and get calls from time to time. Most of my work simply consists of just programming as well as non-code UI / UX modifications to improve the daily lives of users.
Here's the first step for everyone
I recommend pursuing a degree, but there's a plethora of options to improve at programming outside of college that pursuing this career without college is very doable.
"Since I didn't go to school for this, my path was all on-the-job training. Fortunately, that was all with great leadership, so anything I ever received was constructive criticism and guidance."
No. I was originally in an art program and started to realize that it wasn't really working out for me, so I instead tried programming. Overtime I guess things just managed to work out.
Yes. It's entirely remote, has good pay, and considering I've been working here for about 16 years, I've never really had points were I genuinely hated my job.
Yes. Again, I originally wasn't even planning on doing anything programming or technology related but as time went on, I began to grow an interest in programming, and I luckily landed a job at a very successful company.
Definitely try and get a college degree of some sort in it. I think majoring in a programming in college could definitely make it easier than it was on me.
We do have an office. But I typically get calls from time to time and work entirely remotely, even before covid happened I was still working remotely. Although, some days can be a little more stressful than others.
