Ask Slashdot: Where Are the Open Source Jobs?

stry_cat writes "My company has bought into the FUD and is going 100% Microsoft. Rather than work in this environment and be continuously at odds with upper management, I have decided to seek employment elsewhere. Where do I look for an open source job? I've started with the local paper's Sunday classifieds. I've looked on dice.com and monster.com. However almost all are Microsoft related. The few that aren't are some sort of dinky contract or temp job. So is there a place to find a job in an open source environment?"

    Let me know where your working, I need a job, and I am not about to let a operating system pissing contest keep me from taking yours.

    Chances are that their sudden exclusive use of Microsoft is just the tip of the iceberg.

    Given that the company:

    • Decided to switch their entire infrastructure to a single-vendor solution, and
    • Hired the article submitter in the first place

    It seems that making poor decisions is something that they have experience with.
