My guess, a lot of people working in these environments probably do not have the personality necessary to do well. But I guess my generation is a group of special snowflakes who can do anything they want without worrying about the consequence of their actions e.g., taking out a $200,000 loan to go to college to get a degree that you need to spend another $200,000 for a graduate degree. This whole scheme is forcing 18 year olds to take out a mortgage before they have any stable income.
In tech I wouldn’t say there’s snowflakes flakes it’s the opposite.... it’s an intense intense grind you up spit you out environment
what people don’t get in Tech is the technology move so fast that your skill-set ages out almost instantly
I’m 35 years in the business now and I’ve had to reinvent myself so many times it’s crazy....
it’s a lot of intense long hours just to get bitched at yelled at screamed and cursed at and treated like a dog
there’s been times I work 24 hours straight with just catching a few catnaps on the hard raised computer room floor and those suck
