Just look at the hiring process. Almost no other profession accepts a lengthy hiring process as crazy as it is for software engineering now. And the meanest interviewers are fellow engineers.
Us engineers are often too hard on each other while silently accepting abuse from above.
- NikolaeVarius 7y agoAre you sure about that? I've gone through aero and mechanical engineering interviews that were extremely rigorous and long.
- JohnBooty 7y agoYeah my interviews as a software engineer have been utterly laughable compared to pretty much any other job that pays comparably. Usually a quick screener interview and then 1-2 additional rounds.
