Hey Guys, I am interviewing with SVB for architect role remote location. Hows the work culture and growth? As per recruiter, they give 100%+ target bonus? TC: 250k Loc: Wisconsin #svb #wellsfargo #jpmorganchase #santaclara #bayarea

Hi! We are thinking to be on the lookuout to make offers for a new house in Silicon Valley. But it will take time as buying a property in the $2million range need careful thinking and timing.

TL;DR: IRS sits on top of archaic cobol code and is very expensive to make changes. They're investing $80B over the next 10 years and code redesign is included. I lived in 2 other western countries and will tell you I didn't need to pay $60 tax filing software, nor did I pay $200 CPA every damn yea...Read more
