Companies started using virtual networks though..

That’s true but those virtual networks still rely on hardware that is managed by tried and true IT folks such as myself. That’s more of an issue centralization, really.

What I’d expect is that it will be harder to get into IT at some point. Right now it’s relatively easy to get your foot in the door. Only the really talented people thrive though. That will probably be moreso going forward.

Workstations still require real switches and routers to get to that virtual network.
