My dilema is that I’m in a role I presently enjoy, but my tc is ~230k. I’m a director of ML / data science with 9 yoe - meta was recruiting me for L6 research scientist / MLE prior to the recession. So at a tech company I could be making 400-500k and even in finance industry companies (e.g. capita

Very sad with how Card tech treats hard work and innovation. The vp+ population is very biased and never looks at how people work. They have favorites and would just make it work for the few chosen ones. They have absolute power over you. The enterprise teams get the good work and all we are left w

Being remote-first/only, where it isn't already the norm, is an inevitability for every area of our industry that doesn't require physical labor (e.g. data center work). Those companies which refuse to evolve will hemorrhage competent engineers and watch their operational costs skyrocket and their m

Hey! In late 2021, I joined the great resignation and left Capital One, where I was a director of product, to pursue the big bucks offered by a smaller, 400-people fintech (VP role). Fast forward 16 months, I was impacted by the recent layoff trends and have been looking for a job for the past 2 mo
Applied to Google for a couple of roles and got a call from a recruiter for a strategy role. Thought this was odd since strategy isn't exactly what I wrote my resume for. Already offered at Amazon/AWS for a deep learning role with 25% more pay (i.e., Google Strategy would pay less). In general, wha

I work in the DC area and am looking at HQ2 to switch after hearing a coworker got an offer of >200k TC for an SDE2 role from them. Him and I are at the same skill level/years of experience so assuming I do well on the interviews I could get a similar offer. The thing is, Im working on some reall
Anyone have a favorite? I used to be a big fan of Aspiration and it’s solid 1% APY, but they’ve changed things requiring you to move assets from their Spend and Save account, which is a PITA, so now I’m considering going with Capital One 360 checking, since I like the app UX and the 0 fee ATM debit
I'm not the type to whine so it even pains me posting this. Have a people leader that pushed some code in that needed a good bit of massaging, so I refactored it. People leader took it and refactored it back to their initial implementation. Then refactored it again to basically what I had done. Eve
