Tech won't attract intelligent people anymore
I don’t think any intelligent person is considering a career in the tech industry these days. In the past, people were drawn to Computer Science because it was a well-paid, relatively new field. But now, it’s clear that intelligent individuals are unlikely to pursue careers in tech.
- It’s a highly volatile career with companies constantly announcing layoffs.
- Employees don’t matter only profits do.
- There’s a constant rat race, with huge pressure on performance.
- Global competition allows companies to cut costs by hiring H1-B workers at lower salaries instead of hiring locally.
- CEOs are openly bragging about replacing engineers with AI.
- New graduates are struggling to find jobs.
What kind of outcome do they expect? It’s obvious that IT is no longer a stable industry offering opportunities for professional growth or respectful treatment. If CEOs disrespect workers and focus solely on squeezing profits, why would the most intelligent people want to join?
Tech has become a job for desperates.
These tech giants thrived because talented, intelligent people dreamed of working in tech. But now, the industry is a mess with no future opportunities destroyed by corporate greed.
Even when companies lay off 5% of their employees, it increases competition among those who remain. Why would the most talented workers want to push themselves harder if they don’t even get a pay raise?
Do you think the money saved from layoffs goes toward pay raises for those who stay? I doubt it. That money just ends up in Zuckerberg’s pocket so he can buy another yacht.
As a result, the most talented people will leave tech companies to join emerging startups or start their own ventures. Working for big tech is no longer prestigious it’s like working in a factory, where you’re expected to churn out results like a rat.
Facebook is already a sinking ship. Facebook has become a platform for boomers and spam. No young people use it anymore everyone is on TikTok. That’s why Zuckerberg is Trumps bootlicker now, thinking after Trump will ban TikTok users will return to Facebook and Instagram.
All of Zuckerberg’s platforms are terrible that's why people leaving it. Instagram isn’t even social media anymore, it’s just a billboard for influencers promoting paid partnerships. It’s depressing and anybody who cares about mental helt stay away form Instagram.
Facebook is outdated and full of spam, with no useful information.
Things will only get worse. Instead of fixing bugs on his aging platform and removing spam, Zuckerberg tries to lay off employees to cut costs and make the company look profitable to investors. Meanwhile, he’s losing users. To make things worse, he thinks AI-generated users will boost the platform. What a moron. People aren’t as stupid as he thinks.
Facebook is sinking, and Zuckerberg is laying off employees to save money and pretend the company is performing well.
Truly intelligent people will go on to study fields like Biology, Law, or even become plumbers. No one with intelligence wants to work in IT anymore, not after seeing how CEOs treat employees and how they’ve destroyed the job market and openly telling employees that they will replace them in future by AI.
