I think that, as historically demonstrated, the
talented ones will do well. CCIE status right now is
in flux simply because the rates were quite high, the
skills inconsistent, and the training/certification
challenged. I wanted to sit the CCIE Design track and
its already been yanked with others.
There will not be a glut of CCIEs in my opinion, but
there will be a greater demand for people who know -
that means a piece of paper is not going to do it and
the days of passing a goofy test and making $200/hr
are thankfully ending. (Hopefully the $200/hr for
those who know, with or without the CCIE, will not be
too impacted.)
Study hard, make sure that you have non-technical
skills to augment your technical ones, compete on
merit and not letters and you'll do well. Good luck -
I think this is just the start (of course it is -
everything is just the start...) ;)
