RSUs are the best when you know they will be worth something when they vest. Edit: I think unlimited PTO largely depends on your manager. I’ve taken several days of PTO and my boss doesn’t give two shits. So long as the project is on time I could take a month off and he wouldn’t care.

PIZZA.BAT posted:so far all of my experiences with faang interviews have been extremely negative. back when i had my internship in silicon valley the whole scene was still extremely pretentious regarding whether or not you came from a pedigree school and i could sense people's demeanor towards me immediately shifting when they found out i was from a lowly state school. ever since any time i've interviewed i've always eventually talked to someone who i could tell wasn't even pretending to pay attention and the next day would get my rejection. gently caress them Google trusts their interview process enough that there are quite a few "no degree but some industry or open source experience" people getting through it. As cumbersome as it is, it's at least not blind to people like me.

yeah I have a cs minor but all the actual degrees are in one of the humanities. I've never even heard of anybody at google giving a poo poo whether or not somebody went to stanford (and this includes a couple people on my team who went to stanford)

ShadowHawk posted:My Google interview process never had my education come up, possibly because I don't have any (no CS degree or classes). i think the ivy league bias was more of a thing around 2005-2010, it doesn't seem to still be a big limiter these days but yeah seeing attendance at an ivy league school would definitely be a red flag for me on a resume. you're trying to hire a competent person to do a job, not provide a sinecure for the kids of old money.

dear diary. A year ago when I put my cv out there I felt like a girl with the big tiddies on tinder. It was a frenzy of emails calls etc. Now I've only had like two bites, the devops market in London must be dead for the time being. I can't face another bank audit its so meaningless.

in the us people usually use "native speaker" but I think that can run afoul of equal opportunity guidelines outside of like acting or translation jobs

yeah it was a spelling joke about an ad asking for a native speaker and it's not like that's the only mistake in it, I just thought that particular section was esp. fun
