So, between this and Gosling's interview, it seems that Oracle's lack
of career path for senior technical people is causing senior technical
folks to move on. In general, where is everyone going? Are there any
companies left with career path's for senior technical resources? Is
this kind of talent being absorbed into startups?
With all the respect for the guys leaving (well, I'll miss Thor for his
NetBeans contributions), we should probably recall that seniors at
Snoracle are tons. "Perhaps" not all of them like blogging, so are not
put in evidence. I think it's a reality distortion field due to the
blogging culture. I'm sure that nobody does it on purpose, but from the
recurrent mourn about the n-th guy leaving it seems that only mediocre
guys stay in Oracle. We should realize that it's not that way. Also, I'm
quite surprised of this reasoning - I can't understand it when placed in
the US context, which is a very dynamic one. I mean, I'd be rather
surprised, instead, to learn that people spend the whole life in the
same corporate. I expect that people like those we're often commenting
on get the best for themselves, and give the best for the community, by
changing corporate something in a while.
