I'd gently disagree with this. An extra decade or more of working and navigating the relationships of a workplace, and honing a sense of professional judgment and problem solving is worth something. An employee does far more than implement a specific skill. You need some of that extra stuff too.
- intellectronica 9y ago"You need some of that extra stuff too". Indeed. but whether you have 10 years or 25 years of that extra stuff might not make more than a marginal contribution to how you're valued.
- oddlyaromatic 9y agoLooks like I missed that point in your original post. Seems about right. I think I was led astray by your last sentence about the skills.
