Supply and demand. There's less people in STEM so they get paid more.

Quite the HD meme
I worked for a competitor, (not laid off, just quit to take a break). AMD seems to pay a bit better and the office is closer to home. They have been stealing coworkers over the years. I get the impression that the company culture is a bit more about taking risks. My old employer was very conservative, and even though I was working in the least conservative team, I still felt like the culture was too slow.
Why? Is it a bad place to work? Spill the beans lol
Damn, literally just wanted to work there
Jesus, call Polievre lots of things but seriously, a threat to democracy? Damnit, I vote Left and this just makes me realize the Tyee isn’t a particularly good or vetted news source. (Admittedly, what did I expect, you do get what you pay for.)
Completely agree. I think this article is nothing but "rage-bait"... no wait... "fear-mongering"? Somewhere in the middle.
Yes! Thank you
What? Because of the elections? I feel like it's always been an excellent time to delete social media accounts haha
We're living in a timeline
They updated their description of how their search engine works. The new description is still factual, while being slightly easier to understand. The new description also has some fancy marketing flair. They still make it pretty clear that they use other search engines via anonymous calls.
I wouldn't call that shady at all... Unless maybe I'm completely missing the point here.
I think this is a fairly benign move with a valid explanation that has been taken out of context in order to be more inflamitory
No, bombs and the defence industry was not was I was on about. I see your point. Yes there's been some downturn recently, but the tech industry has always been cyclical. It's difficult to get hired today, and there's certainly favoritism towards senior employees.
My point was simply about economics; supply and demand. In my university, about half of all degrees issued are in the arts. If employers want someone with that kind of training, then they have all of the selection in the world. Compare this to a tech company. If a tech company wants to expand their business and they need to implement a technology to do that, depending on what technology it is, there might be like, 1k.. maybe 100k, maybe 1M people on the planet that have that specialty? Employers are going to pay a lot more for a person with that kind of training.
