That’s why 25 year olds in software are making 250k in the US
I know a few folks in software in the US, and the lion’s share aren’t making $250k/year. The ones that are all have Masters/PhDs and are leads/specialists in the Top 20 industry leaders. I don’t know who you’re working for that pays a quarter million per code-monkey flailing at python, but if there’s a job opening that pays this well please let me know. I’ve got over 15 years experience doing big boy shit for a Fortune 500, and I’d love an extra $100k/year.
The best way to get promoted is to change jobs every 3-6 years.
This is true except for the part where anyone smiles naively, as though the dog whistle isn’t delivered in the most transparent manner imaginable
