Anyone who works at JPM have any opinions or pointers about working there? Hows the WLB? Are the projects pretty boring? Never really considered the financial industry as a SWE before, would like to hear your thoughts TC: 87k #jpmorganchase #jpmorgan #chase #software #engineering #swe
I saw a security position which looks like a close fit with some additional responsibilities and technologies attached. However, I wouldn't want to be of such responsibilities forever and grow the career technically and professionally. I went and read on glassdoor that apparently (per the self-sele...Read more
Just read several posts talking about how good it is to work for Google. I'd also like to share my experience. When working at JPMC (my former employer), my manager knows nothing about the tech I am working on and is only good at talking during meetings(however, I can see that everyone did not like...Read more
On their infrastructure or cybersecurity team? In terms of interesting work, TC, WLB, etc? TC ~300k
Got a pretty decent offer there, but looking at overall WLB, and career trajectory. Pay is pretty good I hear - and you guys are moving to Hudson yards soon, right?
Whats the point of working like a donkey chasing $ when at the end most is taken by IRS. I envy laidoff folks now. Tc 410

I currently work at Chase and keep getting contacted by Citadel recruiters for SWE roles. Anyone currently work at Citadel ? Can you tell me what it’s like versus working at a large bank ?
Just genuinely curious, why do people want to chase after BBs? Is it compensation, growth opportunities, or better exit ops? Let's say every day at work, what's the difference of working at GS and RBC?
Work is taxing on my mental health, it is extremely hard to see an opportunity and not drop everything to take it. I end up working 60-70 hours/week to chase promotions when I should be enjoying my life. I made the decision to pursue smaller opportunities and relax, take some vacations etc. I have ...Read more

There’s so much you could be doing in your life and instead you’re not chasing your dreams, and what you love. You’re working at Google going bald you’re fat and out of shape. Meanwhile, that dude from Miami that bought bitcoin isn’t even working and traveling the world on a Tuesday. There’s so much...Read more
An epiphany came to me last night in my dreams: money is fake. A software engineer working at Chase could simply do a single multiplication by 100 in a database and 100x my NW. We're being lied to! There's no reason why we can't all be rich right now except for the lazy idiots at Chase who don't wan...Read more

Our daughter was born last year. After she was born, I have zero desire to keep working. She is almost a year old and I strongly feel I am wasting my time chasing sh!t that doesn’t matter. I really want to spend time with her and make sure I am always around for her. We are financially stable and w...Read more
JPMC is probably the biggest shithouse company for tech workers in the USA. Here, YOE and tenure is everything. Some days I feel like I am working in some DMV/USPS or some federal institution. I would advise any job seekers to only consider this shithouse if you don’t have any other options. I t...Read more
