Your post is the one out of touch with reality. Most developers who get a job offer from IBM also get job offers from others, so they have options. "You are jobless and only this company wants you, so you will work for them even if they are shitty" is mostly fiction. Either no one wants you or multiple companies want you.

- commandlinefan 6y agoNo, your post is the one that is out of touch with reality. You're correct that if somebody is good enough to get an offer from IBM, they're good enough to get offers nearly everywhere else. Where you're wrong is thinking that most developers factor how well other developers are being treated when making employment decisions. If they cared, we would have had a professional association like the screen actor's guild decades ago that codified how developers deserve to be treated, but we don't.
- thrownaway954 6y agoyep... i'm sure if you were offered a job 2x your current pay, the first thing you would ask yourself is "I wonder what the well being of my co-workers are", don't make me laugh. also there are many people who have no choice but to work for a single company or "shitty" one as you put it, it's called people who have criminal records. again... your comment is the pure demostration of how sick the self righteousness of this site is.
