Same here. I must say, in my work experience, I had problems only with engineers as young as me (or around my age) who had a big ego, a very bad personality or the I-am-very-smart syndrome.

Instead usually the "old" engineers who stick in a tech position were always extremely humble even if having a ton of domain and company-specific knowledge with the willingness to share all of it.

Yeah. I’m very lucky to have worked with quite a few of them. I’m definitely better off for it. I’d try to spend as much time as I could talking with them.

Even now that I’ve been working in senior positions for years, I’m still just as grateful that I get to work with people who know a lot more about stuff than I do.
