2024 and Tech Layoffs still continue...more than a headline; they're a wake-up call to evaluate the true resilience of our skills in an ever-changing industry. In this episode, we take on a tough subject to better understand the realities of job security, debunking the myth that exceptional programmers are safeguarded from the chopping block.
We also challenge the notion of generalist vs. specialist and instead focus on the all important question of "what is the value delivered" and "what skills do you need to deliver that value."
Finally...we remind everyone... your self worth is not something that is defined by any company...you have value far and above your job.
