    I did ask for a higher one ☝🏻 it was $250K but they said for T9 it’s a good thing and I have 1 YOE. Only I have a PhD and in a specific domain that they are interested they gave me this package. I don’t know what else to do. I got rejected in the last round in Apple and Facebook 😞so anyways I hav to transfer my H1B so took this offer.

      @all: You folks are right. I’m working 996 for the past 1 month. It’s quite gruesome and I’m already feeling the brunt. I was surprised to see that they don’t have much code documentation and you are expected to produce results in a short time. I mostly worked on Python and R in grad school and here Im dealing with hardcore C. Quite a rough ride so far and manager doesn’t seem to like me yet. I’m jus feeling down 😞. I don’t want to quit. I lost my wlb and during weekends I’m working on some code and reading papers. I don’t have my personal life anymore. I live alone and probably I think die alone 🤧😵‍💫😵

    Well in your case I suggest you take it. It’s still a good name. If it does turn out to be a killer suck it up for a year and then see if you can interview again.
