Employers just "clean house" of programmers and hire a new batch.

Anyone planning a "career" in programming should expect to get laid off multiple times
because of some new shit that does nothing more than the old shit but that's what the
company wants and you are not even given two weeks to learn it.
The company rather spend six weeks finding someone "with experience".
