people i knew got one or two years contractor with 10% more pay increase right away, i was offered more than that for two year contractor at meta twice so far but i prefer staying at where i am.
we are all decades experience in embedded system,this field seems to be more aging proof? i am not sure.
- jnwatson 4y agoEmbedded took a huge hit recently. Google and Amazon uninvested significantly in IoT.
- synergy20 4y agoembedded is more than IoT though, I don't know how many embedded engineers Google has, seems not a lot as its consumer hardware are probably outsourced. Amazon does make it own devices and have quite a lot embedded engineers, from my circle, not a single engineer was let go so far, and I know more than 10 of them in various locations and departments. problem with embedded is that it was paid less than SWEs, maybe that's another reason it's "easier" to have jobs.
