Why feel bad about not being at a Facebook or Google? Why am I trying to motivate to study to go to a FANG? I was at a great successful unicorn before and I’m at a good company now, it is just not for me. As long as I’m paid my current TC or more (I started tech late and want to save up money to FIRE), I would be just as happy at a positive company with solid goals and teammates, and hopefully without a crappy commute. Really, my end goal is to maximize TH total happiness in life, but I’m not doing that if I’m just thinking about the next superficial goal to show off to my friends. It’s a relief to think this.
That’s great!
Lol, this post in itself shows why FANGs are such a big deal.
FANG worship is a Blind and cscareerquestions mentality. In the real world most people don’t care where you work, except the minority of people who are also obsessed with prestige and money (but they’re usually awkward and don’t have many friends). And basically everyone else in the Bay Area who’s not in tech hates techies anyway.
Lets call it FAMANG!!
Do whatever that makes you happy. Why post this though? You dont need anyone else to validate your feeling unless you are lying to yourself.
I appreciate the post, feel like im too stuck on prestige as well
Blind tell suicide if no leetcode only leetcode. Stupid policy
Now that you've realized this you are not only ready to join fang but will also be successful there.
Microsoft people, give it up already. You will never be in the fang category.
You work at oracle
lol both right both wrong. No one born at FANG.
TH or GTFO
MSFT recent stock grants might have caused this.
agree. plus microsoft is still up there as one of the best. I think it’s better than the A in fang atleast and is often included as big 4
Lol
Amazon or Apple?
