The tech industry is filled with a special kind of person who thinks they are the best at what they do. They get paid a lot (for now) so they make the mistake of thinking they’re at the same level of real professionals like doctors, lawyers, and engineers. The industry encourages this delusion by throwing around essentially made-up feel-good titles like “software engineer”, “senior software engineer”, “staff software engineer”, etc. When these people begin to doubt themselves and their line of work, they’re told they have “impostor syndrome” and everything is fine. The reason the industry does all of this is because it discourages their workers from forming unions. They trick their workers into thinking unions will slow them down. There will come a day when the industry is flooded with enough saps that their high salary is pulled out from under them and they’ll understand the reality of the situation. They’ll be left working for pennies and at odd hours of the day.
