He's going to get a very sudden lesson on adverse selection.
- hinkley 3y agoThese big companies have optimized for hiring fresh graduates, throwing tons of them at problems that probably really only need ten skilled people to sort out. There's a fresh batch of meat coming in about 8 months. Nothing worries these places (see Microsoft ten years ago) until the word on the street makes it down to college juniors. Like a cargo ship, or the Titanic, by the time you realize you're in trouble it's probably too late to do anything about it. You committed to this course ages ago and your vector is locked in.

They generally look at people as fungible cogs, and all the leveling, top grading, and OLR processes reflect that. I think they (rightly) think they can absorb any losses and replace them with people willing to relocate and come in.
