Notorious b.s.d. posted:are you loving kidding me? People that choose MongoDB are doing a great service for jobs, and job security for the field. How can we get paid to look good and competent and put out fires if there are no fires to put out? If everyone else was handsome and intelligent then I'd be a loving hobo down by the river.

Handsome Wife posted:This describes my limited experience working with offshore developers so precisely it's almost painful. I was managing a team of offshore devs and spent the majority of my time either writing extremely detailed specs that would be half-ignored or just fixing their lovely code because it was even more of a waste of time to send it back for changes. All to end up with bad code at slower than the pace I could have just written it myself. "But I could hire 10 offshore devs for the price of 1 of you!" - actual bosses in 2019

stuffed crust punk posted:anyone have any experience joining a company just as it gets acquired? im talking like im expecting an offer any (business hours) minute now and news broke about the company getting acquired yesterday Yeah. There was an immediate hiring freeze and when it finally got lifted 3 months later the new corporate policy was no overseas remote so the position vanished right under me! My friend the hiring manager and his boss were quite upset.

CMYK BLYAT! posted:i feel like the engineers that do toy "aha! you missed the O(more efficient than the obvious solution)! declined!" efficiency problems for interviews are likely the same engineers that put out web apps with several MB of static CSS and fonts, all of which have "Cache-Control: max-age=0, no-cache, no-store" set FULL STACK ENGINEER

Devonaut posted:HR called me back today after a second round interview last week. Asked me what I thought now that I've had a chance to talk to some people on the team, so I said a bit about how I'm excited about the opportunity, seems like a good fit, that kind of thing. Lol

I have read enough of these threads to know to not value startup equity as anything. Got a raise once we hit funding since I demanded that instead of their intitial thought of "I thought you were ok with just more equity". Just wondering how common or rude a 1/48th a month vesting schedule is for a key and only engineer in the first year of this startups life. Because it certainly doesn't feel good.

Achmed Jones posted:i mean it's kinda slow IME, but once again, 1/48 of what. you can't really sensibly ask the question without specifying that 1/48th of not a large amount. So yeah speed was my main question. It definitely feels like a gently caress you especially since all of their other actions feel like gently caress yous at this point. Paid lunches: gone Moving to new office 1.5hrs away: mandatory No more wfh: mandatory A new distinct feeling of a lack of trust in me and my fellow workers. This is all AFTER we secured our latest round of funding too. And yes I have an interview scheduled for tomorrow. I am in the process of severing.

My current job has all the code on Github under private repos. Figured we would at least give everyone the benefit of showing activity on Github on their personal accounts. Funny though, when I first joined they made me use the company email to contribute to the repo. And they wanted the same thing for a new hrie starting this week. I forced the issue to allow personal emails again but it is an odd thing to try to force a company email onto Github. Management here are absolute ghouls though so it isn't surprising.

I will say taking a haircut by leaving the USA is not a direct comparison. For example, I took a 50% cut by numbers going to South Korea from USA. But my takehome pay at the end of all the taxes, rent, car, health etc was the same. The USA must pay those absurd amounts because you are absolutely covered in blood sucking leeches. Currently posting from New Zealand too right now so do run a visit before you decide anything because jesus christ the roads here are some mario kart poo poo with all the curves.
