If I am confident I will remain employed for next 15 years (with my salary increments comfortably beating the inflation) then I am not average. I am either exceptional or ignorant.

 

An average IT employee can't remain comfortable for too long. Every year there are millions of debt-ridden and desperate engineers graduating world over. If I don't build my own niche I will be replaced like a worn out tire in 15 minutes.

 

Sorry. The corporate world is a ruthless place. And that is precisely what makes it possible for them to hire and retain their top performers.
