BTW, it won't be 20 years. It will probably be less than 10, which is more like the historical average, obtw. If you are successful in a legacy interview, you will still be a multi-millionaire, and have a great career. I'd strongly advise anyone looking for a CJO not to poison yourself by constantly giving the side eye to someone who had a lucky birthday (or SSN, or...)
i mean how can we not? Our career mobility, earnings, and QOL will be permanently impeded and diminished due to the hiring patterns of yesterday. I’d like to know just how much less one hired today can anticipate earning compared to a similar aged new hire of 2019 or 2022. Probably easily measured in millions. Kind of hard not to feel sour about that. What a huge missed opportunity..
