[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]These salaries make me feel like crap. I am 35 and finally managed to get into a tech startup making 85k after months of applying to FAANG with no responses.[/quote] Why is it that you are 35 and JUST got a job in tech? Did you switch careers? Most people in tech have been doing so since they graduated undergrad. [/quote] I joined my first pure tech job at 57. When I graduated college tech was IBM, Arrow Electronics and Computer Associates, Microsoft and Apple type companies barely existed. Heck Cable TV was new and no laptops. Exactly how does older folk do it Young? Hardly any jobs. To be honest I thought email, cell phones and the internet was a fad. My first friend who has cell phone was 40 cents a minute to use and cost $3000. And no one to call as he was only one with one and pay phones everywhere. Age is not a barrier. You can join an IT company at 65 if you want! [/quote]
