Yep, that's what I'm saying.
I'm too lazy to look into this, but intuitively it makes sense to me. Healthcare is basically an "exception handler" (default state of humans is to be health), whereas STEM is the "real code".
I would expect more "real code" than "exception handlers".
Also sq. ft. of physical space devoted to healthcare (e.g., hospitals) seems to be far less than sq. ft. of space devoted to STEM (e.g., office parks).
If dig up info to disprove me, I would be very grateful to get a correction to my worldview.
- panda_person 14y agoIf by healthcare do you mean all employees who work in hospitals (including many low paying positions), or more prestigious, higher paying positions like RNs, MDs, etc? And what about dentists and other allied health fields?
- luser001 14y agoI would definitely exclude administrators, janitors etc (because these jobs exist in companies that are "in STEM" such as a Microsoft). I would include medical staff like nurses, doctors, pharmacists, psychiatrists, physiotherapists (not fitness trainers), licensed nutritionists, dentists, dentists' assistants etc.
