    IT is a giant umbrella. Many of those things you listed are absolutely part of “IT”.

        No, it’s not. QA is IT. Software dev is IT. BA is IT. Networking is IT. Sales can be IT.

          No brother, it’s not. They scammed you into believing you should be a SME in unrelated things that legit have nothing to do with IT. Stop letting them exploit you.

            You don’t seem to understand the difference between a field of work (IT) and a specific role (software engineer, QA, BA, etc).

            I’m not being exploited, if anything I’m holding my employer for ransom because of my knowledge of every part of our pipeline.

              Thanks for raising another red flag I hate about my work: single points of failure. lmao

              Value yourself more, brother. The rich CEO don’t care about you. I promise.

                By your attitude I just know you’re in a dead end job with next to zero responsibility. I actually like learning and expanding my skills. I jump at the chance to learn other parts of my field, especially when I’m getting paid to do it.

                If you’re in IT and you’re not constantly learning and adding new skills, you’re being left behind.

                  Whatever helps you sleep at night brother. I’ll be here for you when the CEO lays off your department for mysterious reasons. lmao
