In an up market it’s going to be worse. HR is still going to hold the line on raises and not keep up with the market. I’m old too - 51. But I consistently tell young people to chase money. Target BigTech or adjacent companies, “grind leetCode”, avoid startups and Monopoly money “equity”, etc. One person I mentored when they were an intern in 2021 and when they came back the next year, is 25 years old making $220K (Solution Architect not a developer) and I couldn’t be happier for them. They make the same as I make now. But I’ve already raised two (step)kids, bought and sold the big house in the burbs, etc and love working remotely. I told them to do whatever it takes to be seen, promote themselves, build a network internally and with clients and make all the money they can. |
