It might be to their detriment, but I suffered much more than I could detect that they suffered so I am keeping a reserved judgement on that one. But even if you are 100% correct (a real possibility) then it still doesn't matter much; I suffered and I still do.
Environment and even geographical area count. A lot. Even if I worked remotely for the last 14 years. Turns out USA companies really don't want people outside of USA, especially recently.
- mempko 2y agoYes, despite what outsiders think, programming is a tough gig. Even in the US, if you look at wages, they have been stagnant since the dot com bubble collapsed if you account for inflation. People are overworked and as recently shown, job security is not really there. Outside the US it's often worse. I'm sorry you suffered.
- pdimitar 2y agoI still suffer, to this day. Gets more and more difficult as you age. Hopefully I wisened up and I think I started doing the right steps but it's like blowing against the wind; ultimately you'll succeed but... yeah, nevermind. Don't want to complain. I can muscle through it. Not like I have any other meaningful choice either. It's a victory or death situation (not literally but almost). Thanks for your sympathy. <3 Hope I didn't come across as too much of an arse. I am simply way too jaded and burned out.
