Ask HN: Why is that 10+ years experience folks struggle to find work
I see that lots of 10+ years of folks in software struggle to find work while while lots of under 26 command 100K+ salary . I don't want to be cynical and I completely understand and also onboard with everyone should receive compensation commensurate to their talent. In fact, I fully support it.
Lately though, after hanging around on sites like HN, reading quite a lot I am finding an interesting observation. People having 10+ or even 15+ years of experience face greater challenge to find work , be it change of job , finding job in new state etc.
where as there are lot of young folks who easily command 100K+ salary.
What is missing glue ? Why people with large experience struggle to find work ? Are we gradually moving into phenomena that if you are 30+ then either be in management or get out ?
