- robbyking 6y agoI'm 42, and until recently worked for a well known tech company in San Francisco. Most of the time I didn't feel like I was the only person over 30 in the room, but after moving to another city and starting to work on a truly age-diverse did I realize how unbalanced my previous team was. My current team has a good mix of industry experience and excitement for new technologies, which makes planning both effective and exciting.
- meddlepal 6y agoPart of the problem is that SF is just so damn expensive... it's going to self-select for people that can afford to live without the additional burden of a family and that tends to be people <30.
- vkou 6y agoSome parts of SV push for diversity and inclusion, but when push comes to shove, firms are quite happy to protect established power structures - shitty managers, retaliatory practices, toxic culture, etc.
