So been working as a software engineer for twenty years now and seen the steady decline of workers. Started out as the last straggler for a pension, rapid decline of insurance, crap ass 401ks, the lack of employee investment and the chacing of the median salary.
I tell every new hire to spend a year here, get your experience, then look for another job, come back a few months later if you really like the work.
I mean honestly, fuck these corporations, they don't care or have loyalty to their employees and you can be screwed with a 401k anywhere so get you pay bump and fuck their expectations of loyalty.
