PhD or Software Engineer
Hi folks,
I have a tough choice to make. Either pursue a PhD at a top 10 university or start directly as software engineer at a local company (Roughly 110kCHF total compensation). Anyone of you was in the same situation ane can tell me about the experience?
Much appreciated.

What’s your goal after the PhD?

Not sure yet. I think I would work in software engineering but not certain if I want to do it for the rest of my life. In my opinion a PhD gives me more flexibility in that regards.
