I love what tech companies have done for software engineers, such as parallel career tracks so you don't have to go into management if you want to move up, but sometimes it seems like they just want to shoot themselves in the foot. Google makes bright people do dull work and Microsoft fires up to 10% of people on teams even if every single person on that team was the brightest in their field.
