Their dedication has a great impact on our society. We sometimes can not utilize their knowledge by just giving a job in great companies. For competitive programmers, every company should create a separate role and team. It's my personal opinion.

He has won a competition already and I bet Google, Apple, Amazon and the likes are *begging* him with over $200k yearly salary to work for them. Nobody wants to watch competitive programming.
