I’m getting reorged to the IT Department. I want to hop but I hopped recently. /u/Jerome-T CSCQ protests reddit

I was a software engineer at $Megacorp and I left to be a software engineer at $Startup. I left after 2 years and now I’m at $Current.

$Current is definitely not a software company. The tech group is dominated by IT. It’s pretty frustrating at times and to be quite frank it’s getting on many people’s nerves.

The company is moving my team, infrastructure software, into the IT group. I’ll keep it short and just say that most of the people in IT can’t code, can’t read docs, can’t make an API call, can’t do anything without a written down process. I am a generalist/backend software engineer.

Most of my team is considering leaving. The IT director is… “non-technical” and butts heads with a lot of people.

I’ve been here 1 year. I was at previous start up 2 years. I was at Big Tech for 3 years. I want to hop to like Nvidia or apple or Microsoft but I’m worried about how my resume will look if I hop.

Am I shooting myself in the foot by going under IT? Should I just leave?
