Recently moved to US at 45 years of age and I have been hearing that corporates here won’t keep employees after age of 55. They will find a reason to replace you with a younger employee. Anyone who is in their 50s and feels like that?

Ageism is definitely at thing, but I’ve encountered it more trying to get hired rather than stay employed (pushing 40). It’s also an issue for long-tenure employees that tend to be higher in the band.

Nope. Keep your skills sharp, be a team player.

I am an IT architect with 10 years of experience specifically in Salesforce products. I am thinking of moving from a strategy consulting role to an architecture role in Salesforce (company) itself. I have experience building tech strategies and also technical project delivery.

Also in terms of seniority and salary are these roles any different?
