Tech CEOs can suck one. The power relationship has been far too one sided for far too long. Get used to the new reality where you have to pay more than lip-ser

Tech CEOs can suck one.
The power relationship has been far too one sided for far too long. Get used to the new reality where you have to pay more than lip-service to the idea of treating staff like human beings, and where a quick dosh-splosh to a PR company isn’t sufficient to wipe away a multitude of corporate sins.
- quantified 4y agoSome of the SV employees probably are sick of spoiled preening tech CEOs. Why can't the CEOs be as happy with what their employees get, who work to create the CEOs' wealth, as they are with providing for their entitled cost-center children?

- throw827474737 4y agoArgument comes often, still want to see that work out in practice. Universities (also western ones!!) are spitting out more and more SWEs with less talent... great talent still exists, and you need to find and retain it, and guess what, even the eastern european and indian talent jumps ship and payscale. And for just complete cheap outsourcing, proper spec, solving misunderstandings, and verification suddenly outweighs everything else.. So no, good talent is even not replacable by any n of cheaper ones, waiting to hear only one success story (and not just fail in every regard) for that.
