I work in Finance/Investment Industry and was "let go" from one of the companies I worked at because I automated a large portion of my job (among other things). I even wrote an instruction manual for the entire process (not knowing that I could/would be let go). They ended up replacing me with a guy who didn't know how to program, but had 20 years of experience. Live and learn.
- maxxxxx 8y agoThat's one big problem in companies. If you are below a certain level any kind of improvement you make may actually threaten your job and the company will not move you somewhere else.
- krupan 8y agoThat should look really good on your resume, or probably could be the basis for a consulting business.
- ry4n413 8y agoYep, I started a consulting venture ~2 years ago. Funny enough, the guy who "let me go" also said I should start a consulting business. https://www.gotemstl.com/ https://www.gotemstl.com/
