How is work life at Netflix?
I am sure we can't expect work life balance with loads of money that they pour. But question is how bad it is in terms of work life imbalance? Also I heard they don't work as teams, instead work as individual or pair of individuals, how true is that and does that mean they don't have lead or principle sort of roles, instead everybody is expected to code like in startup?
Best WLB of any FAANG. Where do you think the phrase "Netflix and chill" came from? It's for all the engineers just cruising working 15 hour weeks.
Google is definitely better in FAANG. Also I heard some teams of Apple aren't that bad, manageable. That's what I heard and read on blind too..
meXYZ it looks like your sarcasm meter is broken.
Heard it’s great wlb actually. Family oriented, so people make sure their shit works
How do they manage that? Agile or no Agile? Smarter QA?
Lol. Your post is either a smart troll or shows how idiotic the industry has become. The Netflix model is only hire senior engineers, pay top of market, and give them lots of responsibility and very few guard rails
Work life choose one and only one
My time is 930 to 520, 1hr lunch, and 4 hrs extra out of working hours per week due to pure personal passion. So it's about 40hrs in total per week. Definitely not rest&vest though.
Read the culture memo and think about what “highly effective” means. Hint: it’s not about long hours.
No life just work.
