Honestly it was a big deal like 10-20 years ago, now it’s meh. Everything is this weird wagile type methodology that bastardizes both.

I like how the Google guys relate with this more

Not a big deal at all in most parts of the company. It might be in some parts like Finance or Corp Eng (internal IT) but definitely not in regular Product Teams, Sales or Marketing

It’s a nice to have, especially for the more Junior folks. If you are already at Amazon, you’ll never struggle to get your cv noticed, so you definitely don’t need it. Consulting firms might like it though

Definitely took the wrong job. I was offered a seriously competitive salary and great benefits to work at a well funded startup, which is great! Turns out the salary and benefits were meant as lowkey bribes to insure I worked at the company without actually doing any work. Every single suggestion I've made has been shut down and I've been ghosted for several meetings with the CEO. What should I do? Just leave?

How do you all deal with the guilt of leaving a comany/ team? I have been working at Microsoft for 1 year now, and seriously considering moving. I find the code base to be very legacy and I mostly work on obscure bugs that I spend so much time on, mostly due to navigating this large code base and not having much docs to refer to. Hence I find the job slightly unsatisfying, and that I could learn more elsewhere. However, I love the wlb, the team and company culture. The guilt stops my applying.
