Without an Education, Will Techies Go
Far Enough?
12/19/2004 03:43 PMFor this article, I am standing firmly on a soap box.
The Associated Press reported, today, on a few information
technologist that are doing well in their young careers, so well, in
fact, that they each hope to retire before reaching middle age, and
they attained their success without a formal higher education. This
article struck a raw chord with me, because I emphasize the value of
formal education to all of the students whom I teach, including those
seeking a B.S. in information technology (IT) and those pursuing a
M.B.A. with a further concentration in IT.

chies Left Behind James Pace Jr. used to work as a steamfitter in
a General Electric plant in Bridgeport. That was back in the early
'70s, when the grapevine was alive with warnings: These jobs are going
overseas. Go back to school. There's no future here.
Pace left the plant, enrolled in computer school, studied information
technology and never looked back. That is, not until 23 years later,
on the day he was told his $100,000-a-year job as an IT (information
technology) consultant had been sent to India

Google Sacked Killed And Then Ate A Blogger
Mark Jen, fresh new Googler, formerly of Microsoft, was happily
blogging about life at Google when he was called to the company's
Human Resources office. There he was told that he was being let go.
And then, as the term "let go" was repeated with a slightly different
stress, the floor beneath Jen was opened up, and he plunged into a
school of the little piranhas Google HR keeps in a moat. The piranhas
were later served up to other cowering employees by Google's famous
sushi chef, who visits weekly. An important lesson was learnt.

Techies Lined Up For Disney Job?
Techies Lined Up For Disney Job?
09/20/2004 02:54 AM
Rumors are flying this weekend that
Yaho
o CEO Terry Semel may be the leading candidate to replace Michael
Eisner at Disney. Semel, of course, comes from the media world
and was actually a surprise hire at Yahoo, which he joined from Warner
Brothers. He still commutes to Yahoo from Southern California, flying
up to Silicon Valley for half the week. The article has anonymous
quotes from people suggesting both that he would like to take it and
that he wouldn't. Obviously, there's still plenty to be done at
Yahoo, and it would probably anger a lot of people if he bailed out
now. Still, what's more interesting is that many of the "leading
candidate" rumors are from the tech world (even if they have plenty of
media credentials): along with Semel, there's Meg Whitman (who says
she's
not
interested in the job) and Steve Jobs, who has been rumored for
plenty of top media company jobs lately. No matter what, it's
interesting to note that experience in the tech/internet world is also
seen as at least somewhat valuable in the media world. It's a step in
the right direction, as no media company is going to remain successful
if they don't understand what's happening in tech.

U.S. Techies Working At Overseas
Salaries?
U.S. Techies Working At Overseas
Salaries?
12/03/2003 02:39 PMThe issue of tech companies offshoring programming work is certainly a
contentious one, and Business Week has an article talking about how
one company dealt with the dilemma of saving 50% on salaries (vs. the
standard asking price) by outsourcing to India or, instead,
offering much lower salaries to American workers. The
company found that they were flooded with resumes for the low paying
job - many of which turned out to be high quality programmers. The
company hired four programmers at the lower wages, and used them for
the one project. Two of the programmers were eventually hired on as
full-time employees at regular salaries. Of course, this sort of
thing only works while the job market is weak, but does suggest that
the market is correcting somewhat for boom-time salaries that were out
of proportion with reality. Still, I take issue with the "obvious"
choice, as described in the article, of going with cheaper overseas
workers. I think that the benefits of having local, on-site staff who
you can communicate with directly is quite valuable - often in excess
of the amount of money "saved" in offshore salaries. In this case,
the employer only valued the location at $5,000/year - which is much
less than it's probably worth. The risk in offering salaries that are
so low is that you may get lower quality workers who are much more
likely to jump ship. However, in this case, it's clear that the
employer realized this, and appears to have made his reasons clear to
the employees - and, in fact, adjusted the salaries well upwards for
the employees he wanted to keep. This all brings to mind the whole
concept of "professional internships" that seem to become popular when
the economy is down. People who want to convince a potential employer
of their worth sometimes agree to unpaid (or barely paid)
"internships" to convince the company that they're worth hiring.
Techies Still Cling To Current Jobs
Techies Still Cling To Current Jobs
08/30/2004 06:24 AMDuring the bubble years of the late 90s, it often seemed as though
people looked down on you if you kept a job for more than a year.
Everyone was job hopping, often moving up a level with each hop.
However, following the bubble burst and the recession and all those
layoffs, it appears techies are still
very, very cautious about switching jobs. A new
study shows that only 8.9% of tech workers willingly left their jobs
last year, which the researcher says is the lowest number since he
started the study in the 1980s. On the involuntary side, many should
be happy to note that the number of people who left their job via
layoffs also has dropped significantly as things seem to be
stabilizing. Of course, you could question the study, as it only
follows a group of "the world's best-known tech firms," which is
likely to leave out many startups and other firms where job hopping is
more popular.
