/** What about Job Opportunities for PHP in Enterprise Organizations? **
I am working in an MNC, and i am working on Wordpress.. We implemented
wordpress multi user in our company, and my career was based on it for the
past two years.. and believe it, out of all internal portals, the blog
portal is heavy success..
Hi Senthil,
I think I know what you are talking about. I agree that "our company"
has "some" operations. But how many are customer facing? Out of the
1000s what % would be FOSS? Just curious.
Sorry for being pessimistic, The consulting companies do what it gets
to get paid by the customers. The internal blogging and stuff are not
customer rewarding, and so it has been built on PHP. But Knowledge
Management portals can win projects (a similar implementation at a
client site would be a good example), so we got some of our KM tool in
MS Sharepoint. We (including me) do a lot of POCs on open source stuff
but when the customer asks for a particular product, we use the
equivalent of the OSS stuff
PHP will aid in getting a seat into a company which has a lot of job
openings. So will any programming skill as a fresher. The more
programs you have written, the better. It would be better if you have
worked on larger programs instead of a many smaller ones. The "Unix"
experience is of course valued highly at many places. But if you want
to stick to OSS, be prepared not to work for such consulting
companies,but concentrate on some others.
with regards,
Natarajan
