why would people do that when they don't already carpool or take a bus?

People tend to travel at similar times. Your total number of cars required is still going to be high.
Everything must be a service. Ideally provided by google.
Next thing your going to say is that waiting for 15 minutes in the rain with a crying baby while you get gouged for triple price because of nearby concert is a problem for you. Just suck it up and accept that car ownership is a outdated idea and you need to bow to the will of the tech hipsters and conglomerates.
Still not seeing why it's wrong.
I went to a pretty meh public university. Didn't hold me back.
Not the purpose of the visa.
Which they do when they arrive here on the H-1B. It takes decades and they now have to go through even more stress about it because of this.
If I have a bunch of people to keep them on track then hiring the cheapest workers who can do the job sounds like good business.
That's not the bar for the visa and never has been.
coupled with slashing immigration in general.
probably not. Why would they interview that person for what sounds like an entry level position?
It's frustrating when people complain about H-1Bs at big companies like Google/MS/Amazon. Apparently we're underpaid, overworked, and stealing a job from an american. Despite the fact that these companies are almost constantly hiring and if the american wants to go try, they could.
The Aegis Company listed in the article is paying devs 55k a year in the seattle area.
I'm wondering if this is targeted at the places that seem to pay well under market rate.
and cut in half. and a visa which requires in demand skills needs to be curbed.
I liek my car. I like owning my car. I like keeping my random stuff in my car. I like being able to jump in my car and go on a trip if I want. I like having my dog in my car.
How is "oh well you just call for a car" better?
Why?
I think history will be more kind to her. Hell, GWB has a positive approval rating among democrats now.
Complaining about this is putting way too much emphasis on naming.
uh huh. thanks for that.
Does this guy even remember his 20s anymore?
> I’ve worked with a staggering number of engineers that expect the “career path” to take them to the highest ranks of the engineering group inside 5 years just because they are smart. This is simply impossible in the staggering numbers I’ve witnessed
Pretty common at the big companies. 5 years is quick, but it's the start of when people start to hit senior in larger numbers.
If you won't give them something, someone else will. Remember that, and maybe reconsider your biases.
> What then? “Super engineer”? Five more years? “Super-duper engineer
Depending on where you are, staff/principal/distinguished/fellow/partner/etc...
If your engineering ladder ends at Senior that's a failure on your part honestly.
When is it appropriate to call someone a senior engineer? When they hit 65? When they are the most experienced engineer left? When they come in and announce that they are no longer going to attempt to expand their skills in any way?
If you want to stick in SE 1-6 before senior then go ahead. It seems like what the complain is really against the the typical bands we see at a lot of companies nowadays.
