Ask any Graying Tech Worker, whether (s)he wants to recommend the same career path to his/her kids. Ask why they don't recommend the path. Basically, the Industry has made it hard for Americans to seek tech a career path--for the following reasons. (a) get rid of older workers (b) offshoring (c) use H1-B to suppress wages, even though Google/Facebook will pay $200K to junior developers. The industry is not just Google/Facebook When it comes to India, where offshore companies operate, you see the same: (a) get rid of expensive workers, as delivery managers to show profit by hiring cheaper warm bodies (b) Tech Industry, just like any other industry, has lots of 'bullshit' jobs. Instead of getting rid of bs jobs, replace them with cheaper warm bodies, and capture the profit. (c) For average Indians, unlike Average American Kids, there are no better alternatives to seeking a job in tech sector. So, there is more competition for 'billable hour' jobs at offshoring companies.
