Hi. I am interviewing for a 3-1 role at USDS. Do they have the same horrible 996 culture as TikTok? I assume so but I wanted to check if there is some difference. Any interview tips? Thank you.
USDS is bottom of the barrell. Honestly, incompetent PMs and even worst engineers
Incompetent PM and terrible leadership: engineers there’s good and bad.
I’ve heard it is hard to have good output if you’re a good engineer, though you have some job protection. No 996 in US really, as long as you set boundaries and only focus on output (ignore useless stuff that won’t impact output)
No. There is no 996 unless you want to. They don’t force you to work. It’s a choice lol. TC?
Then why would everyone complain 🤔 Seems like ppl say it’s the culture you’re forced upon. 210k + 70k equity
Sure, you aren't "forced" to do anything. You better be ready to take the responsibilities of those actions too then
