Issues with sleep
I'm only a few weeks on this app and wow, things seem fairly bleak for most. Sure, I have some TC envy, but I'll take lower pay over all the negatives I see people posting about.....threat of layoffs, shit culture, work probation (sorry forgot the term), perks disappearing, etc. SRE TC 240 10+ YOE
Blind is the worst of employees with a gripe, not representative of normal employee experience
What’s SRE?
Probably site reliability engineer
We lost a shit ton of perks over the last two years, so not really following you on that point. Google and Meta post perk cuts still have way better perks than we ever did. How is that a plus for Bloomberg?
Bloomberg doesn't have lunch tables so lol
Yeah, good for the time being but no reward in long term though.. Bb can’t match senior/staff comp compared to top tech
It’s a trade-off. BB gives good job security with decent WLB for not so great comp. If you recently came to understand that through this app, that’s great. However not everyone might prioritize things in the same way as you, and that’s also completely fine. Let’s not over-idealize one company and bash all others when everyone’s been trying to do right given the economic climate
I definitely wasn't trying to bash other companies. Just glad I haven't explored other opportunities to leave, which hit my LinkedIn near daily
Ik bloomberg new grads with about that TC. Seems like a you problem
I know I'm underpaid. My boss and his new boss plan to correct that. But I'm not a SWE, so I don't expect the top comp
Hope you get what you deserve
