> Unless companies start hiring to mentor people this will not change This wont change until SWE stop job-hopping so much. In turn, the job-hopping won't stop until employers stop prioritizing new hire compensation over existing employees...and I don't see how this stops because it's measurably profitable and is self-reinforcing. On the flip side, as an employee, I like that I can reuse the skills I have, it commoditizes employers and lowers the friction in changing jobs. Knowing what I know about capitalism in practice, employers would love the savings from employee tech lock-in.
