Great if you’re a Disney Adult or have kids. The silver passes are worth it.
Lack of transparency from leadership. Lots of gaslightin. People are more focused on optics instead of employee capabilities.

Nokia and Blackberry went down because they are unable to keep up with shifting paradigms for phones. But compani...Read more

I’ll lead with this: I’m a straight white guy with a neutral-American accent and US citizenship, so I have a lot of unfair advantages in life that not everyone is lucky enough to get.

I've been on blind for a little over a year now and with all the negativity, I wanted to (hopefully) share some positive encouragement for those looking to break into FAANG.
