I am one of the few who voted no. My current job is not where I would like to be although there is potential. Of course, I think there's potential in everything so that may not quite make up for the frustrating parts of it.
Anyway, I work as a Business Analyst for a pharmaceutical company. Now, many here would think that title has to do with IT type stuff but it does not. It's the true sense of the word business. How is the company (and its various units) performing? Where are we versus goals? What can be done to improve operations? Etc, etc, etc.
Normally I am excited by this type of work but the current position is hindered by significant change in system infrastructure and political infighting. Constant shifts in my responsibility for certain business units have made it difficult to contribute significantly (at least to my own expectations, not to others expectations) to their improvement.
Anyway, I will continue to force change from within towards the greater good of the company until I find something a bit more personally rewarding and/or I take the plunge into one of my various business ideas.
On the good side, the pay and benefits are very good and most of the people are outstanding.
