I’m also a comp sci professor, and whenever a CS alum working in industry comes to talk to the students, I always like to ask, “What do you wish you’d taken more of in college?” Almost without exception, they answer, “Writing.” One of them said, “I do more writing at Google now than I did when I was in college.” I am therefore begging, begging you to listen to @stephstephking@mstdn.social: https://mstdn.social/@stephstephking/113336270193370876

I should add: If your employer doesn't increase your pay by at least 4% per year, the value of your pay is regressing, not keeping up with the average rate of inflation. If your employer is aware and does this anyway, that's a pretty clear message that you should seek one that values you. #jobs #employment #pay
