Human cognition is always biased toward simplicity and rudeness, but it always refuses to admit. Two words are particularly popular this year, one is PUA and the other is inroll. Every problem in the workplace seems to be explained by these two words. In particular, in this year’s economic downturn, many people like to use the inner scroll to reflect the difficulty of finding a job. I think this is a kind of thinking lazy phenomenon, so talk about some of my views.
Why is there such a thing as an inner volume?
The current meaning of the inner volume is understood as “irrational competition”, the nature of the emergence, lies in the limited resources. When an industry develops rapidly, its industry cake is infinite increase, come in a piece of the pie. And when the industry shrinks, the pie may actually shrink, so the barrier to entry is necessarily higher, because it can’t get everyone to eat meat. Inner volume is an inevitable path for any industry. Because there is no market that will grow forever, except people’s livelihood market (such as health care, education, but the growth rate is limited).
Is the internal volume of the programmer serious?
Strictly speaking, the Internet industry is far from a sunset industry. The three levels of the inner volume, the first is the threshold of access increased, the second is office politics, the third is the admittance treatment greatly reduced. The most direct manifestation of the workplace is office politics. In our industry, office politics don’t usually permeate the middle and lower levels. But in some state-owned enterprises, traditional industries, even a low-level finance department, the internal struggle is extremely brutal. It is precisely because, the less resources, the more brutal the struggle, when the business can not distinguish between high and low, it is necessary to use various means to destroy you mentally or physically, in order to ensure my interests. The Internet as a whole is still in phase one, which is not serious, but there’s no guarantee it won’t move to phase three.
How to face the inner volume?
What should we do in the face of the surging inner volume? Some recent articles have argued that groping is a non-violent protest against capitalists and the inner circle. As long as you do not struggle to force, I do not struggle to force, the industry’s internal volume will naturally improve. Is that really the case? Let me tell you a story:
When Wu Zetian was in power, the criminal law was so severe that she would kill her family at every turn. Someone asked emperor Wu, “Your majesty is so harsh, who will dare to become an official in the future. Wu Zetian said, “Look at the moths throwing themselves on the fire to be burned to death, but why do the moths keep flying upward?
As long as the resources are in, no matter how serious the volume is, there will still be one after another.
In recent years, the number of people who change lines to become code farmers, I believe we all know. Why would anyone want to be in an industry where the dividend period is almost gone? Because of the resources, the money. If you don’t want to do it, there are people waiting for you to leave. The average salary in Chengdu is more than 6K, which is basically less than the level of fresh graduates even in the IT line. How many 211985 graduates in mechanics, physics, electrics are staring at this? Can our industry be as difficult to study as medicine or law as it is to change careers for these people? Giving up fantasy, inner volume is inevitable, in this process, we can only try our best to learn and supplement, try not to be the one who is optimized. Better, of course, if you can do something creative, write a middleware, write a framework, build your own little product. More valuable than simply learning. Learning, and not just learning to write code. Try different techniques, try different positions, and stretch your boundaries.
A little less inside?
2C market companies have a characteristic, “its prosperity also fluctuates its death also suddenly yan”. Once in the tuyere, it expands very rapidly, and once out of the tuyere, it contracts very rapidly. Moreover, 2C has almost no entry threshold, and anyone can compete next. For example, the community began to buy food, a few big giants immediately throw money at people. However, 2C successful products have no routine to follow. They are as strong as bytes, launching numerous products, but they cannot reproduce a douyin. It is still tiring to do 2C in China. One reason is that, under the strong competition, the product will be subjected to endless trial and error. The high frequency of trial and error as far as possible, adding functions, and finally choosing the most effective one. Uber, for example, which has only a few companies doing sharing globally, is less edgy. In China, the battle between Didi and Kuaidi is burning up to 100 million yuan a day. Under such a fierce struggle, programmers must face speeding iteration. How can it not be hard? Once the product reaches a bottleneck, it may take a lot of people to optimize the initial over-staffing. Either create a new track to absorb them, or let them go.
It is worth thinking about the attitude of the public in the face of company personnel selection. On the one hand, when companies lay people off, people say capitalists are heartless. On the one hand, when the promotion is difficult, they blame gerontocracy for not removing those who are lying dead on their books. The healthy development of the industry is bound to be the continuous change of talent, such change, is sure to sacrifice some people, this will not change with our will. Either you live with it or you quit it. And whether you comply or quit has virtually no impact on the state of the industry. All you have to care about is your own life and well-being.
In contrast, rapidly growing companies/companies doing business overseas/companies that have monopolies are relatively less likely to be engaged, and even if they are engaged, they will receive relatively higher treatment. The other thing that’s out of the field of vision is the 2B company. Their expansion and development is orderly, at the same time with a certain threshold of entry. I suggest you look for it.
