How did engineers end up being so underpaid and overworked?

Whats the point of working as engineer or scientist? You spend over 3/4 of your free time learning and improving yourself. You solve extremely complicated problems which few human beings can. You get exploited in every way possible despite usually being one of the few people that bring value to your company. You get paid absolute dog shit salary.

Literally some mumble rapper or some retard that decided to sell pet rocks makes 100 times more than you. It's extremely demoralizing bros. Why is degeneracy valued so high? Why do buisness departaments earn more than us? Why does some retarded boss just because he decided to exploit us get to earn more than us ? We literally move humanity forward. Whats the fucking point if we barely have better standard of living than a mcdonalds high school employee.

Only on Any Forums could a person look at a career dedicated to self-improvement and ask, "But what do you get out of that?"

Your reward is spiritual advancement. Obsession with material gain is basically subhuman.

I'm no christcuck, but to paraphrase Matthew 6:33,
seek first the Kingdom of God and worldly matters will be taken care of.

also the great reset is almost here

It's one thing to improve yourself for your own ends, another thing to improve yourself to make upper management 10x more money while you get nothing.

Engineering compensation is broken, it's why it's customary for engineers to leave their company every 2 years to negotiate for higher salaries. All skilled labor is like this.

The real problem is management compensation. It's a piss easy job compared to engineering.

What kind of shit engineering degree did you get?

t. 200k plus bonus

Entrepreneurs and lucky bastards will always have a better chance at success in life than those that conform to the norm of getting degrees and going to school for the sake of doing so. However they also get a higher risk of failing spectacularly to the point of no return.

>which few humans can
Apparently, this isn’t the case. There are millions of new meatbags popping out of vaginas every month, who will be begging to solve intellectual problems for peanuts.

well he's in bulgaria

Also you’re one of those meatbags. You’re not entitled to a good pay. You were allowed to enter this world, so that (((they))) could use you as a tool. Nothing more.

Are you treating your fucking cofee machine with fancy cleaning agents so it develops itself as a being? No? Neither do our overlords

They don’t want you to move humanity forward. They don’t want you to be engineer. You should be a waiter for them(or whatever demeaning service job pays better(this is how they indicate what’s needed by them))). And your female counterpart has to be a whore in fucking Dubai or Tel Aviv or London etc.

>extremely complicated problems
Like what?

You will rent forever, you will slave away forever, you children will rent forever, slave away forever.

The elite will own everything, decide you destiny and feed you just enough bullshit to keep you going.

Systems Engineer here. I can fix any practical issue in almost any discipline. I've designed data systems, I've reviewed methods of moving crude from tanks to ships, I've even figured how how to remove stuck machinery from the bottom of a mine. Suddenly, I find myself defending my position against a flood of Indian "engineers" one generation out of the jungle. They don't know 1% of what I do, but they're willing to work for 10% of the pay, so they get the job. I honestly believe it's just another blow in the fight against the hegemony of the west. Too bad the people that "win" are going to inherit a world of shit, literally.

Haha the absolute cope
Almost anyone can finish an engineering university if they have the time and resources.

You can say that about literally any major. Think about that the next time you get on an airplane. I doubt any of those people on the 737 MAX did.

This is pure cope anyone can literally do anything with the right time.amd resources. What a retarded thing to say

The fact that they don’t speak good English doesn’t mean they’re dumb. The hard truth is, these Indians are probably as smart as you are. It’s just that they’re cheap to raise, so are “produced” en masse.

Why pay a western engineer 100k per year, when you can raise 10 engineers for 100k worth of rice and hot peppers.

The real riches aren’t in doing work, the real riches are in getting others to work for peanuts. Work isn’t valuable anymore.

EE here. 160k annually and I'm not even senior level. I have zero money problems. Sure I can't buy a yacht, or a lambo. But honestly I'm more interested in buying a modded Dreamcast. Plus engineering is a noble discipline of humanity with the potential to invent things that change the world dramatically. Lawyers and Doctors, although are necessary, don't really do anything to advance mankind.

Engineers are faggots who are too disconnected from the world to make tools that are actually fucking useful and scientists are a bunch of pretentious pedophile freaks whos only advancements are in surveillance and giving everyone AIDs.

You all deserve it

>But honestly I'm more interested in buying a modded Dreamcast.
Disregard Hurrican, acquire Daytona USA.

Already got my Satiator installed last weekend, user. DAY-TONAAAAAAA

Being an engineer is a very low stress job.
Working on the business side is way worse.
If you don’t understand, then be grateful.

This is a very, very eastern opinion.
>The hard truth is, these Indians are probably as smart as you are
"You just stick a cattle prod up their ass and you can get a horse to deal cards." The thing is, you can't train that horse to know why they're dealing cards, and definitely not how that deal interacts with other systems. Every system is a subset of some larger system. Sure Indians can figure out the basics of avionics, but can they figure out how avionics work within the overall system of aviation? I have almost 400 dead bodies that - if they could - would testify that no, they don't.

It’s not about the money though sis. Just sell your bussy and feet bathwater if you want to be rich sis.

Plus, technical knowledge is a great equalizer. It doesn't matter if you have the highest IQ on the planet, nothing can make up for decades of being immersed in specific technical details. I plan to work until I die because I don't really consider it "working." I just tell people with less technical knowledge than me how to get their shit working or why it doesn't work how it should. It's easy and fun, and I'm helping out. Easy money.

>you get paid absolute dog shit salary
Chemical engineers, electrical engineers, and mechanical engineers all make a base salary around $100k.

Average CERN data scientist makes around $150k. Consultant physicist salary is around $100k. IT engineers and network engineers makes $100k. NASA research scientist is $128k. Research physicist makes $60-120k. Similar for software engineering.

There are some bioengineering listings that pay pretty shit, and you're fucked if you're in audio engineering, but holy shit. How the fuck did you get your engineering degree when you're too retarded to convert that degree into a decent job? Did you hit your head during your graduation ceremony?

Also, I get why Ukrainians might be on the defensive. You're not an Indian, don't put yourself on their level.

Autist retard don't worry you might find a used walled roastie when you make 100k plus

>Bulgarian engineer.
Bro, I work a soft 40 hour week making over six figs and have near zero expectations because of diversity hires. Engineers in America can make more than veterinarians and most lawyers.
If you get your PE or go into contracting, you can basically print money if you're worth half a shit.

That hits so hard bro, it's literally my life.

I'm a graduate from a soul crushing STEM faculty and I'm not even working in a job I was specializing in. I lost the best years of my life doing this

Because said Indians are not as smart or well trained as western engineers. They're worse than diversity hires and diversity hires are so retarded they get people killed.

>I work a soft 40 hour week making over six figs and have near zero expectations because of diversity hires
I went into data specifically because I can work three jobs at once, but it's not for no reason. I know all these IT jobs are going the way of the dinosaur in the next five years on the outside, outsourced to Indians that have no idea what they're doing but will do it for 20k a year, so I'm getting mine now.

That’s a very racist opinion, because we’re not talking horses, were talking people with minimal genetic distance from your average white guy.

I’m not pajeet btw

Engineering is saturated with literally every "nerdy" guy going into the field.

also with trannys who get all the good jobs via nepotism and dilute the fuck out of them by being useless parasites that destroy companies from within, causing said companies to hire even more engineers for less pay.
