Yes, tech workers are quitting six-figure jobs. And it's not because they're soft (some might be, but that's ok).

In 2022, resignations topped 50 million, due to the so-called “quiet promotion” effect (that's where you get all the responsibility, with none of the raise), and “we're family” bullshit got more ridiculous than the Fast & Furious franchise.

Cool thing is, companies don't fix themselves until quitting makes them. Uber only rebuilt its culture after the #DeleteUber movement made staying the same too expensive.

Suresh, who has 20+ years in the industry, is proof you don't have to gamble your way through it. He took a mentee from zero cloud experience to an AWS AI Cloud Practitioner cert in four and a half weeks.
