Obviously you do you and you do not owe anyone anything (least of all your employer).
However, something does not sit well with me about the fact that we’ve created a system where the most driven and ambitious people are removed from the production process as quickly as possible.
It says A LOT about what we value as an industry.
Yes. I have worked in a financial company and a lot of teams in that particular company were structured with 2 or 3 Americans with no skills other than exposure to internal company info, the kind of stuff that should just be written down in a wiki somewhere. And when real work needs to be done they (metaphorically of course) drag an Indian contractor out of a cage who actually knows what’s going on and how to do anything. And they do it with disdain as if being a contributing member of society is a bad thing.
Just being in a meeting with some of these teams made me feel like I was a Harkonnen from Dune.
Oh, you’ve misjudged my drive and ambition.
