Old uncles in IT are ignorant

Overheard a conversation between a freshy and a guy 45+. She was talking about her cousin having amazing perks and hike in DE shaw, it has 400-500 employees in Gurgaon location.

He said these small companies are not safe, i have seen it all i was there in 2008 crisis, i have worked in many small company but at the end big MNCs are better and what not.

When she said that is product based and we are service based , he said don't get me started agian...🤦‍♂️
