Definitely varies by group. I'm in PEPI, based out of Atlanta and I've never actually been in the office. Going on year 4...

CG1, I haven't been to the office but it's cross functional and in a good part of the city. I would imagine it is used much more by some groups than others. I don't actually live in Atlanta, but I'd imagine I'd use it on Fridays if I did.

Really depends on the office. MDs have a lot of autonomy and can run their offices how they choose. Some are really involved at the office, others come into the office only a few times a year, and the culture develops around those behaviors. Which city are you considering?

I think it’s pretty good. I talked to a team two years ago and they were chill and also smart. Sounds like a good culture.

What group ?

Not sure what they call their management consulting BU, but its that group (probably perf improvement?). Based in chicago

AWS vs Cloudflare BDR roles

AWS lowballed but I negotiated to match Cloudflare. Cloudflare offers more equity but AWS has a higher base.

I love Cloudflare. The people are great but it’s an engineering culture and the sales team isn’t as well shaped up and I can’t go for a promotion until at least 18 months of tenure. I am an investor in the company and think of them super highly. I’ve already got half a years SDR experience and AWS promotes quicker.

AWS has prestige but is it worth it?
