Remember when tech workers dreamed of working for a big company for a few years, before striking out on their own to start their own company that would knock that tech giant over?

Then that dream shrank to: work for a giant for a few years, quit, do a fake startup, get acqui-hired by your old employer, as a complicated way of getting a bonus and a promotion.

Then the dream shrank further: work for a tech giant for your whole life, get free kombucha and massages on Wednesdays.

And now, the dream is over. All that’s left is: work for a tech giant until they fire your ass, like those 12,000 Googlers who got fired six months after a stock buyback that would have paid their salaries for the next 27 years.

We deserve better than this. We can get it.

    You’re being told by basically everyone in this thread that your ideas are incorrect. Either take this as an opportunity to reflect on this and perhaps come to a different conclusion or take the L and move on. Go touch some grass.

      Wow a bunch of random weirdos downvoted me on lemmy. What a prove you are right. Marx was never downvoted on lemmy. Only logical conclusion is that you are the new Marx. Marx, the paladin of the mainstream opinions on political science platform lemmy

      Grow up please. Learn how to discuss as an adult. You agree with the guy sharing hentai furry porn on 4chan. Downvotes on social media mean nothing, they are not a prove of anything. Otherwise novax would be right based on Facebook likes

      And I thought reddit was full of naive people
