Mech Eng -> IT for ND folk
2024 mechanical engineering grad at an aerospace prime. Recently diagnosed with autism and ADHD, and I’m looking for a career with less masking, less constant communication, and a better fit for how my brain works. IT keeps coming up in my research.
I don’t mind a pay cut if it means fewer accommodations and coping skills just to get through the day. Anyone neurodivergent in IT, does it live up to that reputation? Any roles or niches worth looking into?
