NYC is probably the most busy office there. I was at PwC in the northeast and though we work late nights, it’s nothing compared to what those guys work. We also had one guy go to the west coast and he said he was working his normal east-coast hours and his peers told him he works too much. If you really care about hours, move up a little to the Hartford office. They’re not as bad.

Thank you very much! I appreciate your insight!

It's a big 4 in NYC. Lots of hours and plenty of A types.

I was hoping for something a lot more specific haha, but thank you for responding! 😅

Bump please. 😅

I got a call from the Google recruiter about my L7 em interview Google She said I did overwhelmingly good on all interviews except one had mixed feedback on a system design. No surprise because it was not a good interview. The recruiter said i had a choice to go to hiring committee, give referrals they could call about my system design or take another system design interview. I’m not confident about the system design because of the bad experience I had with the previous interviewer. What should I do?
