Getting sick of WLB complaints man. Y’all are getting paid considerably higher (3x or more) than the national median income and yet complain about working 80+ hours a week. You chose to be in this career and have the option to quit if you don’t like it. Either choose high TC or go work for a non-profit/teach at a school for a healthy lifestyle with good WLB. You are entitled if you think you deserve both. You can’t have your cake and eat it too. #WorkEthics #CorporateLife #WLBisForSissies #BustAss #NoPainNoTC #theBeetusLife
I want my cake with cherry on top and eat it too
Are you looking for 🤖? Blind currently doesn't have any
I beg to differ.
Hi, my friend from the future
LOL!!! We aren’t hourly employees and at the risk of sounding like an absolute dick - people in the median income range do not possess the same skill set as us. Our TC is based on the understanding we work 40 hrs/week, except that isn’t a think in tech we do work way more. Complaining about the unjustness of that isn’t entitlement. Entitlement would be stuff like claiming we should be able to work fewer than 40hrs or claiming we have a right to free food and stuff.
Right place, right time. There are now and for centuries have been plenty of people with similar skills that aren’t where you are at the moment.
40 hrs is an arbitrary line. You are entitled to be drawing that line in the first place.
I bet you believe in the work life cycle too huh
how does a dumbo like you get in apple... the impact and money software engineers make for the company justify the high pay.. more hours decrease productivity as a rested mind can work at higher level
Yea the impact and money software engineers make for the company also come at the cost of WLB. What I am saying is, take your high TC and stfu about WLB. More hours don’t decrease productivity for mechanical shit. Apple didn’t become top tier hardware company without the blood and tears of some hardware folks.
If you think software engineering is mechanical shit, you must be pretty bad at it.
OP, something is terribly wrong in your hypothesis. I hope you really don’t mean it or did not think through while putting up, otherwise I wish no one get manager with your mindset. Every job is different and being done in different environment with different set of skills.
I guess OP explains a lot about why people complains about WLB in Apple
I mean it. Can you point out what’s wrong rather than saying something is terribly wrong?
Only profit sharing can make ppl stfu and work their asses off.
One stinky fish ruins the fish pond. OP is that stinky fish. His team the fish pond
Where on earth did that analogy come from? It’s not remotely accurate. Should have stuck with the bad apple metaphor, especially given OP’s employer. F-
True. But I think in hindi. Its an Indian quote. ‘Ek gandi machli poore talaab ko ganda kar deti hain’
As if everyone is free to work wherever they like. There are things like Visa restrictions for some people.
You are on some other cloud in some other parallel universe, while OP is on some other smoking trip
Yes they can quit go back to their country and teach 🤷♂️

Is "From the River to the Sea" So Wrong?
What are they putting in your food?
What’s your issue though? You get paid so much and don’t want to work?
If you did these things for free it would be called a hobby. By the very definition of “work,” we only do it because we are paid. By nature, it’s not something we want to do, so to answer your question, nobody wants to work. More money, less work. That’s the goal.
