It is hard to apply such a forecast to all tech companies. They aren't created the same. Growth companies and startups have already corrected after realizing the mistakes made. Blue-chips have reduced workforces in non-profitable efforts while expanding workforce in profitable ones.
Real leaders aren't going to look at what gets constant press and apply it to their divisions. That's just asinine. Also to think you need to provide extreme value to your employer because of "the times looking tough" is the media scaring you because you saw a market correction of layoffs and a significant event of someone Icahn-lifting a company.

But trying to provide extreme value by working intensely is not a bad way to face life I would say. I want to work 8h hours (or less!) but I want to run hot all the time while I'm doing it. What's wrong with that?

- xyzzy123 4y agoI guess the way I would put it is, when someone is providing "extreme" value to you, you know that's not a sustainable relationship and you have to start making other plans. If the terms aren't economic for both parties, they can't last. Long term I shouldn't be relying on getting value which other other people would be willing to pay more for.
