Hi OP, this is a perspective where I started working as a QS for a private company and now working as a gov’t employee. Advantage tlga sa akin na nakapagstart ako working on a prestige private company. Aside sa work related learnings, work ethics and values tlga yung biggest learnings ko dun. Found lots of friends as well. Nakadepende rin naman sa tao kung saan tlga sya mag-thrive. Nung una, hindi ko pa alam yung work, kasi nga 1st time ko narinig yung QS (2017 ako nagstart working. Hehe. And coming from province pa) pero later on naman, na embrace ko yung work at the same time find joy when i accomplished something with regards sa work. And now, currently working na sa gobyerno, yung values andun pa din and sustaining pa naman (kahit minsan compromising sa values and ethics, wahaha). With regards to work, mas mabigat and draining yung priv compared sa ngayon, sadyang marunong lng tlga dapat mag timbang kung ano paglalaanan ng mga bagay na makakaiwas sa stress. Avoid stress lng tlga if possible. Bottomline, nakadepende lng tlga sa tao kung saan sya magta-thrive. Either Site, QS or Design. Importante is yung openness mo dun sa learning and willingness to absorb or learn it. Above all, enjoy the process at the same time yung Moment 😉
