Which video web conferencing tool do you prefer for collaborative work?

    We're on Teams, but still use Zoom for all our meetings. I like it a lot more than Teams' version, so I'm glad management decided to keep it. I don't think there's anything special about it; it's just what I'm accustomed to at this point.

    Zoom seems clunky but it does have more features.

    I like Zoom, the whiteboard feature, now that I know how to use it, has been great. Also sharing screen isn't a hassle. Worked with somebody on google meets before, and did not like it. However I do get biased to the programs I use more. Get so used to everything in one something else is a hassle to learn the slight differences.

If you were given one extra hour each workday that had to be spent on professional development, how would you use it? I’d probably split it between learning new tools and studying how other industries solve similar problems. How would you invest that time?

What was the biggest mistake you made early in your career that ended up teaching you a valuable lesson? One of mine was assuming everyone interpreted requirements the same way I did. Learning to ask clarifying questions saved me from a lot of rework. What’s yours?

It took me a long time to say it out loud, but I regret choosing this path. The pay is stable, but the constant pressure and lack of fulfillment are leaving me feeling like I'm ready to exit. I’m actually thinking about a total career change later in life. Has anyone successfully walked away from engineering after a decade plus?

What’s something that seemed critically important early in your career but matters much less to you now? For me, being the smartest person in the room has become a lot less important than being part of a strong team.
