- snowwrestler 13y agoWho would rather stay unemployed than take an engineering job?
- dylangs1030 13y agoA successful technical consultant who makes double what any company could reasonably offer him save the largest. True, this isn't technically "unemployed" but they're practically the same thing - not owned by a competitor, and hirable if you can seduce them. SaaS and tech consulting are really trendy right now because there are a lot of successful role models for these things. That said, a lot of magnificent failures and wannabes...but that comes with anything. Add to this the fact that the companies who really understand how valuable good, skilled engineers are will make generous offers with benefits and vacations and conferences and food and luxury and and and...and you see why it becomes difficult to find the really sexy workers.
