Few can outbid big tech when you look at total comp but I can see the point of them wanting to fill a void with the changing market conditions.
A few things to look out for
- When tech is not the primary product you may find decisions flow in a weird flow. Companies are often ok with high tech debt, manual processes, and don't always think in terms of scale or maintainability.
- Sometimes there are some odd tech decisions like building EVERYTHING on top of SalesForce or some random CRM. It can be easy to be trapped in niche configs that don't transfer to other places well
- The pressure to outsource is high because tech is not their core business. All it takes is a CTO or other exec change to be on the losing end of a cost battle.
Moral of the story is to work on parts of the system that are transferable to other jobs and stay up to date on best practices outside of work
Honestly couldn't have said i better myself as this is pretty close to what I tell people... Pay attention to those transferrable skills and stay up to date on those trends and practices outside of your field. AI is changing quite a lot and continually will!
That sounds good, can you give examples of such companies.
I work at an animal health company and have for 20 years (unusual I know). Animal health and servicers are growing as are a lot of human health companies and not just in data and analytics.
A really good insight especially for the current job market in the tech sphere. Not all, but a fair share of non-tech companies, still have some need for in house tech people, so really does pay off to look around a lot and do some research at each place.
Definitely, and especially in places like where I live in Seattle where they have to compete for those candidates which are considered TOP TALENT and are mostly considering those tech orgs because of their beliefs of the market which seem to be changing little by little...
Yes! I was in the Tech industry with a Solution Provider big with Microsoft/Amazon/Google partnerships for many years.
After layoffs - I was sick of the industry with the threat of potential layoffs at the whim of soft quarterly sales and forecasts. My ex-employer had 2 rounds of layoffs (2023 and 2024) and some insiders feel they may even have another round of cuts later this year.
I’ve seen tons of tech hires from nearshore and offshore. The layoffs here continue with Opentext and UKG being recent stories.
I had numerous potential jobs interviewed for that were eventually pulled.
I finally got 2 offers - one where I could go back to a similar role I had before at a Tech Solution Provider and the other offer was a Tech role in the Healthcare related industry and I went with the latter. I’m impressed so far with the abundance of Cloud and AI modernization projects being initiated at my Healthcare company.
Well put and that's what so many people feel that I speak to the "threat" of layoffs in tech. Of course that's not to say that retail and these other healthcare orgs don't have them too but I've been impressed with the resiliency and offers I've heard and seen from these orgs that would not normally have access to top tech talent.
This is a great point! But it's interesting that you say that some of these companies will pay better than tech. In my experience, nobody pays better than tech industry companies, especially those located in Silicon Valley. Have you seen specific examples of when these companies paid better than the tech industry? I'm not doubting you, just curious!
I have and it just happened with this account. This person was in between like 4 different tech offers and then got reached out to by Nordstrom and when it was all said and done they paid him more than all other tech orgs and in their discussions they mentioned that this is more normal now in areas with tech workers like Seattle.
That is a really good point that I haven't thought of. Its been really hard to find a job in this market so maybe this is something I should do. I hadn't ever thought of that as a strategy so thank you for sharing this.
It's definitely in play these days especially as more and more organizations are trying to modernize and get more digital.
This is true but it’s just to compete with the high cost of living in those locations. NYC, Miami, Seattle, SF…. They all pay more there but you get hit with 5k rent for a 1 bed
LOL! This is NO LIE. I live in Seattle and get the sticker shock all the time. It's get crazier and crazier by the year.
Sorry why are we taking tech advice from someone at Nordstrom?
You used the word tech three times in your first sentence.
