I work at Telecom company in central Virginia. I am 38 and one of the youngest employees in my group. None of the engineers in the 50s/60s are like the people in this article. There is huge resistance to changing anything. Web architecture from the 90s, C++11 is too cutting edge. Change is bad, stasis is good.
- alexasmyths 9y agoYes. Telecoms is a different beast. I worked in Telecom in SF during the .com and it was like being in Texas vs. my friends in .com startups. I didn't like it then, but I appreciate many more aspects of it now. Deliberate planning. Longer term sales cycles and business planning etc..
