Companies hire thousands of engineers every year

Tech companies around the world hire thousands of engineers every year. Everything we do and see on the Internet is made possible by a code. Social media companies need good codes all the time to increase their customer base, and that is why they hire the best programmers and engineers available in the market at high salaries. This is the secret of high paying jobs in the tech industry.

Most programmers are unable to give their best but there is also a negative side of this coin. A programmer or coder can write the best code of his life only once, this is the biggest problem of the IT industry. Once a code is written, then the person who wrote it is technically no longer useful to the company, that is, it becomes unnecessary. Ultimately the company has to take a decision to throw them out. Some researchers have claimed that with the help of neural networks (technologies such as block chain and artificial intelligence) and natural language processing, the coding process will completely eliminate the need for humans in the future
