I used to work in quantum information research, but it was 6 years ago - during my PhD.
Right now I work on teaching quantum physics, information, and computing - with an (open source) game
https://quantumgame.io/ (work in progress; now created a company to be able to work on it full time!),
When it comes to the current research on quantum computing, I recommend following Scott Aaronson - one of the top scientists in the field, writes well, and is also skeptical (remember that both companies and universities have an incentive to do marketing).
