I’m moving into my later 50s and have been an IC basically my whole career. I’m at a company with a lot of people my age. I was on the job market a few years ago and the only issue I encountered was salary. I think the problem is when you’ve been at a place a long time, if they appreciate your work, your annual salary increases will quickly bring you to the top of the market. As time goes on you’ll get a few percentages over the basic cost of living which over time really adds up. After 10 years your base pay can be pretty far above the market.
