employed physicist

Those of you who have completed research physics and are currently working, how is it, what exactly do you do, are you satisfied, do you work inside your country (and if yes, which one) or abroad, online, how difficult was it for you to get your current job?

Did an experimental PhD with little to no programming required in it. Now a software engineer. I'm alright with how it ended up. I do miss research but now I'm too old and removed from the scene to get back in to it.
