I'm not an IT head but in my last role they'd come to me for IT related problems because my I went to school for Electronics engineering. It felt just like this

Not sure if anyone here was affected last week:
Rev Leon Lonnie Love
damned mine eyes, DAMNED mine eyes!!
Didn't think i'd have to play heavy office politics once I got to big tech...but man these insecure and racist old gatekeeping cacs are something else. Even worst if you dont come from their alumni circles, they immediately think you're not good enough and will challenge any engineering decision you make just for the fukk of it. code review sessions turning into warzones and shyt.

People are gonna take a shyt on this guy, but I think he was incredibly honest with everyone and himself.

OP is probably going to go through a story arc where they try to become a chef, go to cooking school in Italy, then try to get a job as a gourmet chef, realize it’s harder than tech, work in at Chili’s for a couple months, then start applying to SDE roles again.

I feel like this dude just needs to lean into personal skills and be more of a PM. Mediocre engineers that are half decent communicators can thrive that way. He definitely seems right about his job viability being eliminated if he stays in pure software dev

If only PM jobs weren't tied to the number of engineers…

Programming + another skill works ok. Like programming + specialty finance expertise, for example. Programming on its own seems to be like this guy describes, but combined with other expertise it’s still marketable.

Yeah I don't think he was saying it’s bad for everyone, he just looked down the path for him and didn't like what he saw

@nicknow
I’m not gonna dump on him, but what’s he planning to do that is better? It’s unclear if he’s willing to take a big pay cut or not.
Software Dev is still a pretty good career comparatively.
