"the company is not teaching them good skills."
Do companies actually teach anyone, ever?
"If they joined as a jr engineer at a FANGMULA or equivalent, they would be making $300k,"
This assumes they could spend the time to pass the interview and then deal with the performance expectations. Losers like me could probably work two $80k jobs if they are simple enough. But I'll never get into FAANG, nor would they pay me $300k for a remote role.
"They think that promos (like this article), are at most only %10, while promos are more like a x1.5 to x2 of your income."
Where the hell do you work!? My company gives a 7% raise with a promotion. I want one of these $300k jobs with a 2x promotion. Even the $150k job would be a 50% raise for me. I have been looking for a while and see almost nothing over $120k.
