    Dev generally has 20% more salary, but much more workload. It also depends on your interest if you are good at building something or finding faults in something. A dev cannot code in all languages, but QA can test any website written in any language using 1 language using any automation tool. Don't think coding knowledge guys become dev and non coding do testing. Testing is not just manual testing, it is very broad field. I am SDET and moving now towards dev role.

    Dev is good, but Automation Testing has great potential, but that's until AI has fully penetrated.

    Agreed but also I now code using GenAI as a guide so I don’t think Automation Testers will be made redundant by GenAI. One has to verify and validate any and all code GenAI spews out. Creative fields can never be overtaken by GenAI, only enhanced. Like photography and painting: cameras didn’t make paintings obsolete; they only made realism cheaper.

Resigned from LTIMindtree in March 2026 with LWD in May. Despite being a top performer for 2 years and consistently receiving 4/4 ratings, my final rating was reduced to 1/4 after resignation, which impacted my variable pay eligibility. Disappointing experience, especially when my managers acknowledged my contributions and performance throughout the year.
