Why would it be flagged? Yes I have not seen any junior positions in a long while TBH. Isn't it a fair question?

  As phrased it's not really a fair question. It starts from an assumption that there is hate and disdain for juniors without evidence, and then proceeds to hate on senior engineers for things like, you know, having health issues or taking vacations they're entitled to per their contracts. If he doesn't want people to take PTO, don't give them PTO. If he wants to discriminate because of health issues, he should probably get a good lawyer. I didn't flag this, but it's so poorly written that it's not surprising.

    OP writes in response to one of the comments: "I'm sorry for climbing up the ranks quickly and successfully convincing my boss for a raise and a promotion." Gives me the impression that senior engineers resent OP's career progression at his workplace. Hence OP's disdain for not getting enough respect.

      Maybe they resent him, but he seems too unpleasant to resent. He frames taking long PTO (presumably contractually permitted) as a bad thing, if I had a manager like that I wouldn't resent them, but I wouldn't respect them either.

    Okay thank you, makes sense. I am however been thinking that there are rarely any junior jobs. I guess that boils down to capitalism. It probably isn't worth hiring unless people are at a certain level. Recruitment is pretty binary in that sense and given the nature of our work, I don't blame them either.
