Comment on 3 Reasons Young Engineers Are Not In The Automation Industry by Nima Heydarian

Thanks for the comment.

That’s unfortunate and sad that foreign companies don’t consider Mexican engineers as capable. I myself know at least two Mexican engineer from Mexico with great capabilities.

I’m also in no way saying that my salary per-say is low. I was merely comparing that salary to other options available to young engineers in America towards the point of the article on why young engineers are leaving automation industry here.

I am personally firmly against the discrimination of employees across the world and huge gaps that exist between the wealth in rich countries and the not so rich ones which is a whole other subject. I hope I didn’t give a different impression by this article. (check out my personal blog NimaHeydarian.com)

I identified myself with this article, but it is a little harder situation in México. I am an automation engineer graduated from one of the best colleges down here, I have experience using a lot of different PLCs, HMIs, SCADA, DCS, etc. I have being in a lot of different industries like oil and gas, mining, electronics manufacturing, food and beverage, automotive, etc. I travel 75% of my time. We are not very good seen by foreign companies (like for applying for some position out of here) and I can tell you that you still earn about 4 times what I do…

Very nice article. Although I’m not an engineer I was trained in Chemistry and could almost write the same article for the pharmaceutical industry. I think many big companies in the US are in this old path and not adapting to the new changing pace of technology and culture.

Hi,
I am currently a Siemens user but my local AB rep has given me info on the micro800 range. I would like to play with the programing software so I downloaded CCW_Version_1.0. This software requires authorization, I only want to play with the software at this stage.
Do you have a trial version of the software?

Regards
