I would argue system tools and utilities, CLIs and networking software are where Go shines the most.

Rust is probably the only good modern alternative that is mature.

I have a question for big companies building software in Rust. How are they able to find the talent? Unlike most other common languages, it is magnitudes more difficult to ramp up entry level new hires in Rust for the simple reason that Rust requires more than normal understanding of Computer Science. Is it just the C++ devs that wanna transition or have already transitioned to Rust that those companies can recruit?

They have not found this to be true.
