FWIW his company hired an H1B executive from a third world country who promptly tried to move the department he was in to that third world country and they wanted him to basically train his replacement in that third world country and set up the operations there.
After about 6 months of back and forth he was able to convince the higher ups that this idea was not feasible and (based on that country’s and our country’s import and export restrictions) it would have been illegal.
So he’s still there. For now.
Good for him. I worked for a big company (who shall remain nameless) that had a two-tiered system: one was the experienced engineers (me) and the other were the fresh-out-of-college engineers. The latter class got shipped off to a six-month training session where they got pumped up with corporate BS and came out thinking they were God’s gift to the software engineering world. They would send these off to a project like paratroopers to “BOOM” create some system somewhere. Then they’d send us in after the fact, to clean up their mess and maintain it.
I lasted for five years in that environment, until the company decided to go into the security arena. I thought that was great, since I was very much into digital security. Unfortunately, the idiot wunderkinds they brought in knew NOTHING about security (except what they may or may not have sleepily learned in class) and didn’t much care what we experienced old codgers tried to tell them. After two security breaches I quit that company. Haven’t looked back.
