A billionaire wrote this letter to Google a year ago. How likely is that Google's layoffs and actions since then are at least partly because of this? (lemmy.world)

And those sectors would gladly hire people from the tech sector, but yeah no one will pay you 300k for writing JavaScript

    Maybe. If I was hiring someone new under me I would tend to avoid people who worked for Alphabet. Frankly controls+automation is a not a fun field to be in. If you want to get into it you have to be willing to endure it. Can't exactly have someone who spent their childhood riding horses on their private estate working in a slaughter house.
