Anyone who works in the IT industry will have this experience. Those who graduated from university and went to Google or Microsoft will have a strong engineering ability after three years as long as they are willing to study. People who go to Baidu, Tencent and Alibaba are much worse, because the former pays great attention to cultivating people, while the latter does not. Of course, the situation of other companies may be worse. Three years later, if you change jobs from Microsoft to a company like Alibaba, you can get a very high salary and realize the goal of doubling your classmates' salary at once.
Of course, if you choose a new company again, you should aim at growth, not whether you get more than 20% salary. In a company like Alibaba, performance is still very important. If this person is willing to study and has an open heart, he will make rapid progress in the next three years. If he can always do things with this attitude, 10 can earn three to five times more than his classmates. To really achieve this goal, Dr. Wu Jun thinks that he should at least be satisfied with his career development and economic situation.
If he is lucky and works hard enough, he may become a person who is willing to pay double the price. It is such a person who makes a fortune in his official career. If these people start a business in the future, their chances of success are much higher than others.
Of course, many people will say that these companies and universities you mentioned are beyond my dreams. What should I do? Here, Dr. Wu Jun just uses well-known nouns as examples. Everyone has his own starting point, comparing himself with himself and people with the same conditions. As long as he reaches a higher level every few years, after a few years, the income of graduates from two universities will exceed the average level of one book, and one book will also exceed the level of graduates from Tsinghua Peking University.
On the other hand, if the first job seems to earn more money, learn nothing and have no chance, after ten years, this person may find himself standing still. Dr. Wu Jun interviewed some people who graduated from Peking University in Tsinghua and went out for a walk in Tencent, and found that their level was not much higher than that of recent graduates, but they also developed a bunch of bad habits.
Dr Wu Jun encountered a similar situation when he was at Google. Every year, some excellent candidates get our salary and welfare benefits (referring to the sum of salary, bonus, welfare, stock, etc.). ), but they don't accept it. Three or four years later, they came back to interview Google. Dr Wu Jun asked them why they didn't accept Google's position at that time. They usually say that Yahoo or Microsoft overpaid 20%.
Of course, these people are usually recruited, but after Google, their level may be one level lower than their classmates. Dr. Wu Jun said before that in the United States, most people can only be promoted twice in their lifetime, at most in companies like Google. If you are worse than your classmates a few years after graduation, even if you earn more money, it is not a good thing, not to mention that once you develop bad habits in your first job, it will affect your lifelong development.
Finally, you may have to ask, what if everyone goes to companies with low incomes but very good ones? You really don't have to worry about this. Dr. Wu Jun found that in both China and the United States, more people care about 20% salary than about their own growth, thus leaving opportunities for ambitious people.
