Almost all of the big names in cybersecurity I deal with all have female recruiters and sales reps
Imagine some of these phone calls to key decision makers by these sales reps trying to explain a cloud product to a CTO, or CIO?


Sales engineers are the ones closing deals on technical products. The sales people are simply used to get past gatekeepers.

These are for profit companies and their lack of accountability regarding productivity has resulted in their $ losses and many of these woke clowns on the unemployment dole.
The real problem is the federal and state workers who produced absolutely ZERO while sitting at home.

The excess and extremely good treatment of workers that we saw at tech companies is a great example of American exceptionalism and should be celebrated.
If we want the hardest workers for the least amount of money then we can just offshore the jobs and not use Americans at all.

Having worked in tech for 25 years before recently giving it up, I can tell you this is all 100% true.
There's so much make-work and so many unnecessary meetings. What Elon did with Twitter needs to happen w all the tech companies. Lose half the staff and nothing significant changes.

It’s not just tech. It’s a significant portion of corporate America in general.
