Excellent resting and vesting opportunities from what I hear 👍
you can’t beat $17
Best WLB I’ve experienced. A lot of people work from home on Wednesday’s. Unlimited PTO. A friendly, welcoming culture.
WLB is fine, but bigbeans is an outlier. Very few devs get away with working <5 hours a day. Expectations are very high for IC3 and above. IC2s that aren’t interested in promo can chill. WLB is probably better for non dev roles. Some designers and PMs on more technical teams really don’t do much, since devs do all the planning.
There’s a huge backlog of IC2s to get promoted anyways, so unless you’re on a visible team, good luck.
WLB is super chill, but it's hard to make things happen and get promoted and grow career-wise.
Very heavily skewed towards the life side of the balance. Which is nice. But not for everyone.
How hard is it to come in at IC4 or IC5?
Very hard to come in as IC5
L4/L5 typically came from FAANG and were staff there
Non dev role; WLB exists
Depends on the team. Most of them have very good WLB. I work 3-4 hours a day.
Wow, what’s your level and TC at Dropbox ?
promoted to ic2 9 months after joining, tc is 💩
