本文发表在 rolia.net 枫下论坛In any sector of IT industry, the few SKILLED workers can always make a reasonable good salary. Whether it is in network, security, programming, voip, marketing, sales..... VoIP is hot today, so the market value for a general skilled worker is higher than average, or than people with similar skills in other sectors. When the hype passed in 18-24 months, the market value for those people will drop, for sure less than 100k.

I am in R&S, VoIP sector for quite some time and many of my friends are in this sector too. 100K is not some magic number. Also, I've seen many high valued skilled worked in R&S ended up not so well, or moved on to voip or security due to shrinked market demand. You can no longer ask for the same high salary level you enjoyed in the dot com boom when there are so many less skilled worker in the market and asking for half of the price. It is a reality, and you know it is true.

I have no intention to de-value CCIE, as in my team there are very good people with CCIE certification and is really helping the business and helping the team.

But, for a new comer who is deciding what sectors he should go into, I want to shed a little light to that guy, not to discorage, rather to alert him what to look out for in his future careers.

I am nice, and with teeth.更多精彩文章及讨论，请光临枫下论坛 rolia.net
