Everyone knows at least a little about the Enron story and the devastation it created in the lives of is employees. It's a story that belongs in any discussion of ethical accounting processes and what happens when accounting standards and ethics are discarded for personal greed.
Enron began in 1985 selling natural gas to gas companies and businesses. In 1996, energy markets were changed so that the price of energy could now be decided by competition among energy companies instead of being fixed by government regulations. With this change, Enron began to function more as a middleman than a traditional energy supplier, trading in energy contracts instead of buying and selling natural gas. Enron's rapid growth created excitement among investors and drove the stock price up. As Enron grew, it expanded into other industries such as Internet services, and its financial contracts became more complicated.
In order to keep growing at this rate, Enron began to borrow money to invest in new projects. However, because this debt would make their earnings look less impressive, Enron began to create partnerships that would allow it to keep debt off of its books. One partnership created by Enron, Chewco Investments (named after the Star Wars character Chewbacca) allowed Enron to keep $600 million in debt off of the books it showed to the government and to people who own Enron stock. When this debt did not show up in Enron's reports, it made Enron seem much more successful than it actually was. In December 2000, Enron claimed to have tripled its profits in two years.
In August 2001, Enron vice president Sherron Watkins sent an anonymous letter to the CEO of Enron, Kenneth Lay, describing accounting methods that she felt could lead Enron to "implode in a wave of accounting scandals." Also in August, CEO Kenneth Lay sent e-mails to his employees saying that he expected Enron stock prices to go up. Meanwhile, he sold off his own stock in Enron.
On October 22nd, the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) announced that Enron was under investigation. On November 8th, Enron said that it has overstated earnings for the past four years by $586 million and that it owed over $6 billion in debt by next year.
With these announcements, Enron's stock price took a dive. This drop triggered certain agreements with investors that made it necessary for Enron to repay their money immediately. When Enron could not come up with the cash to repay its creditors, it declared for Chapter 11 bankruptcy.

As larger numbers of businesses come to rely on computer networks as their primary means of communication, an information technology degree becomes more lucrative.

Companies of every size and structure will be clamoring for your services.
One setting where you could put your information technology degree to work would be in a professional office setting. There are several ways that you could find your degree useful in such an environment. Obviously, when an entire office is linked by a network, that network will require maintenance. You may also find yourself doing some training, as not every employee who is using the network will have such a full understanding of its capabilities. You may also have the opportunity to suggest upgrades and make sure that the information within the office is being managed and acquired with maximum efficiency.
You may also find that an information technology degree is quite useful in an industrial setting. Many factories use an intricate network to monitor everything from the performance of automated machinery to the temperature in the building. There are an endless number of possibilities which could utilize your skills and place you in high demand.
Perhaps one of the most lucrative facets of a degree in information technology is the possibility of self employment. There are several different ways that you could develop this. As a professional, companies will look to you to build networking solutions for them. They will look see you as the expert and will be willing to pay you to not only tell them what they need, but to provide it, and then maintain it. If you enjoy customer service, being your own boss, as well as the information technology field, then this may be a great road for you to consider.
Another path that you might take a look at is as a consultant. There are a large number of companies who already have information technology solutions in place, but are looking for an improvement in services. In some instances they realize that the systems, which they are currently using, are outdated and need to be upgraded or completely replaced. There is a large demand for information technology professionals who are willing to come in and give an honest assessment of a company's needs. They will look to you to make recommendations and to help them develop a plan to improve their information efficiency and capacity.
An information technology degree can open doors for you in places where you might not even know they exist. This is a career field that is going to continue to get bigger and growth potential doesn't seem to end. People who have an understanding of the computer systems that manage our business, our finances, and our everyday lives will continue to be in demand and will be able to carve their own way in a world that is coming to rely very heavily on their skills and knowledge.
