They made top dollar and can't, anymore.
Many of them are finding it difficult to get jobs where they aren't 'overqualified' or are having to take massive pay cuts.
some have gone back to teaching, shudder. That's a paycut.
Bingo.
That Giant Sucking Sound
Were these ex-microsofties allowing themselves to turn into dinosaurs? Often people go to work every day, do the minimum 40hours, and stop investing in themselves because they get comfortable with their job. However, it's a real detriment when you get laid off and can't show that you know the latest technologies in demand
I'm guessing you missed the operative word..... "overqualified".
I think that's a bs line. If they are so qualified, why can't the be the head architect at a company? Or the CTO?
Cause someone on the way up the ladder will do it for a whole lot less than someone on the way down the ladder.

Apparently some here don't know this.
Maybe they were overpaid in the first place.
Either way, increasing minimum wage will result in higher costs to consumers. This will result in minimum wage workers still being in poverty until they figure a way to advance themselves past minimum wage. This will affect people above minimum wage probably more because their employer isn't going to automatically increase their wages higher because of the minimum wage has increased. Dollar is worth less
In he end, were discovering that the career has a pretty short half life.
Wrong
I think we have all seen that occur where someone sits back and collects 2-3% increases a year and a promotion here and there when they are not improving themselves any longer. However, they are loyal, work 40 hours a week, have some education, but are still not continuing their education or experience. Stuck in their ways. Not saying that happens to every person, but definitely does occur. Then they complain afterwards about having a tough time finding a new job. Well no **** that a company would rather hire someone younger, more eager to learn, and understands the latest technology, willing to adapt, etc...

You should probably take a little more time thinking your posts through in the future....

I'm pretty happy with my post. This world has a way of separating the winners from the losers, and it's no surprise that the losers blame the system and try to change it. If I were lazy or stupid and couldn't support myself, I would also attempt to force others to support me. Just the way of the world. I'm competent enough to take care of myself, so I'm against socialism.
We work on a project for a couple years, it rakes in a few hundred million to a billion or so.
A career in tech is 5 or 8 or 10 of these, strung together.
Choose some variety in the projects to diversify yourself. Make sure the projects are challenging and define your career rather than let other people define it for you.
We do have a problem of off shoring development , which is a daunting issue.
It's a high stakes, cut-throat world and highly competitive.
Turns out, not something that has any longevity and the hours become brutal.
I found one, He's working the tool isle at the local home depot.
Good news for cadman, I hear his median income is up..... now he found a job....
