Hot topic on Blind is where to rest and vest as an SWE. However, rumor has it that many companies, Amazon included, treat their researchers a lot better than their engineers. Presumably, this means that there would be a bigger pool of low-stress companies. tbh I'm kinda burnt out from dumping time into this degree and don't want to pull 60 hour work weeks again. My current company is very comfortable and I do interesting research, but man this TC is hard to live on in a HCOL city. TC 115k, PhD + <1YoE
