I know it wasn’t on your list, but I work at Salesforce and the majority of our workforce is remote and the work life balance is awesome. I’ve been here 9 months and only had three weeks that I worked more than 45 hours.

Thank you! I’m applying to Salesforce, but have a (distant) contact there, which is why I didn’t include it. But if they fall through I’ll definitely reach out!

I recommend checking out Indeed as well. We kind of fly under the radar because our stock is traded on the Tokyo Stock Exchange, but Indeed is an awesome place to work.

Gotcha. I’ll def consider indeed for my next job! I want to move from enterprise to consumer tech, but want to avoid facebook/YT/tik toks so indeed is a great fit in that sense.

U1: TLDR: I joined a very small startup and it shut down and we all got fired. Not a fun time, and possibly why this week has been tougher on me than some colleagues of mine.

P1: you’re right, peloton has kind of a startup culture, but it’s gone public. I’m not opposed to start ups ( some of the companies in my list are start ups) but I am looking for mid/ later stage start ups if possible (due to compensation, stability, WLB, etc.)

We're looking for a backend SWE. Series B but very well funded, all remote, and amazing growth. Let me know if you're interested.

For anyone wondering, I was not laid off today (though many colleagues were.) rough day.

I was hoping to take my job search kind of slowly, but idk if that’s feasible now. Once things have calmed down a bit I’ll reach out to folks.

Thanks again y’all, I really appreciate it.
