    You might be too expensive tbh… Their goal is to drive down your wage here IMHO

    I am not sure if there is away out.

    They did similar things in accounting and law post 2008. Looks tech is this crisis flavor of wage suppression

      There is and has been this whole time a massive blinking sign that points to the way out and it is called “Unionize”

        For the cohort sure but telling a man who need a job to form a union is useless. He needs a job in his field ideally for the same or better comp.

        The issue now is that there appears to be an aggressive wage suppression campaign against software developers as result of domestic over supply due to decade old shill campaign along with super aggressive offshoring since covid. Unionizing under these conditions are nearly impossible imho they have unionized when they had market power.

      The way out is creating cooperative companies where the programmers have more votes than marketing people.
