Young developers will work mindless hours and not demand proper compensation. That's why (poorly run) start-ups prefer 'em. Also, wealth is the world's shittie

Also, wealth is the world's shittiest metric for success. I know a ton of people with incredible skills who work rather low-paying jobs because they want to improve the world, follow a particular passion, or whatever.

People you hire straight out of college tend to feel grateful, and also feel like they need to prove themselves (which is true). So they are usually willing to work extra hard. This can be a good quality, if nurtured properly with guidance and training.
- chasing 8y agoTrue. I was being a little flip, there. There are also jobs that would be a waste of time or dreadfully boring for senior devs to spend their time on.
