Just curious as I started out my career at the hoo and like 90% of the people I worked with are gone. I loved my time there under Marissa but will never forgive the short sighted move to cowtow to activist shareholders and spin off the Alibaba investment.

      Good we’re renting first since we will probably be just getting our Pasadena house on the market when we move but I really like the area. Felt like I was back home in Portland last weekend with the rain.

      The 0.8 multiplier was total BS.

      But you should also note that for 2019 VM became a first class department in Verizon, meaning the multiplier will be the same as the rest of VZ now, which was 100%... so don’t dwell on that.

      Also for the annual RSU vest: note that it’s 3 years, not 4. So the monthly payments became annual, with a 25% increase to balance the risk.

    Fantastic place to relax. No real accountability. A ton of Miltons floating around, getting paid, without a real job.

    Some things are better now, some are worse. Many product engineering teams have adapted and are really excelling and growing (users and devs) like Sports News and Finance. Still many teams are struggling for various reasons, like Tumblr or Flurry.

    Marissa was a culture hero, but she was brought in to right a mismanaged ship. Her leadership style could also be suffocating and unfair, and probably better for having transitioned away.
