Anyone here know anyone who has had chemoembolization for liver tumors? I am up to my eyeballs in Google. My friend has stage 4 neuroendocrine cancer (pancreas, lymph, bowel) and did this to try to stop the tumor spread in the liver. She is struggling.

Received an offer from a top FAANG for a 250% increase in TC. However, I was initially interviewing for a position that was remote and yet the final offer does not provide that option, non-negotiable. I have a wife and 2-year-old child and another one due in 7 months, and currently live near both sets of grandparents.

Is working at a top FAANG really worth that kind of cost? I'm leaning heavily 'no' but it's not making it easy to sleep at night knowing I'm sitting on this kind of offer!

Have been at my new job for about 3 months now. At first the team was somewhat friendly and open to any questions I had. At this point I barely have any questions but if I do I basically get ignored and don’t get a response. Sometimes they can be cold and rude as well. I also feel there are still some things I need to learn and have no idea when they will get to training me on it. Not trying to take it personal but definitely feel on edge about it.

Just thought I would ask if it happened to anyone else.

Maybe it was just a coincidence too
