LOL what are you asking exactly?

If you want chill go tech

Right now, the culture is trash but I really hope it returns. For me, the wlb does matter - I don't work more than 45 hours and sometimes I get stressed with the amount of work but I'm not forced to stay late and I figure out when to get it done
