Hmm what makes you think software developers are not abused? Maybe in your world they are not, but it regular to hear about devs working 12-14 hours a day. With bosses and clients harassing them even at off hours.

You hear about that in "high status" organizations. Most companies cannot get away with that, and treat their developers much better.

This has not been true in my experience. The shitty small business masquerading as a startup treated me horribly, now I work for OVH and everyone is super nice.

Amazon's AWS is known for long hard sink or swim overtime, and they're the first letter in FAANG

A high status company, they can do that. Find a boring company nobody has heard of
