Took a self imposed exile from Blind for about a month. I can honestly say I am in a better state of mind not obsessing about TC and levels all the time. About a month ago I went into a kind of a mild depression after seeing the kind of money so many people here, most of them younger than me, seem to make and I felt like a loser. It was affecting my state of mind. So I went cold turkey and decided not to log into Blind for a few weeks. I spent more time with my family and focused on doing well at work while taking advantage of all the perks Google has to offer and I can honestly say I am mentally recharged and in a much better and positive state of mind. Now making a little less money doesn't seem so bad after all. I realized that there is more to life and career than maximizing your pay. Reading posts related to salary numbers doesn't even bother me now. Anyone else go through something like this and can relate to this?
Just don’t dig too deep into this TC rabbit hole. Nothing wrong with either side, let people brag about their TC because they may have had a better hand, just like poker. If u feel u r financially stable, then spend more time with ur family is the wiser choice. If not, try ur best looking for exit that has higher yield. But ur family is always there for u, high TC or not!
How come u r badly paid in google?
No one says he is, subjectively speaking
Don't lie. You got banned.
Come on, don’t leave us hanging like that. It’s stressful. What’s your TC, level, and YOE?
DF?! How in the world would anybody care so much about Blind? Here’s hoping you never face adversity IRL.
But seriously - TC and YoE? Without that - we can’t really relate.
Isn't that the same feeling after being on FB for a while, seeing only the happy side of people's lives? I think that's a common side effect of any social network that people show off and brag about some aspect of their lives, depending on what social network they're using. (Awesome looking at Instagram, happy family/social life on FB, best career on LinkedIn, High TC on Blind, ...)
GTFO is good
People lie in Blind. A lot.
