Got an offer for a sales applications manager role at Cisco and a Strategic AE role at Amazon - both are basically the same pay (130~ base, 220 OTE)
I don’t have any friends at either company so I was curious if anyone has experience and can shed some light on culture/ work life balance to help me make a decision? Thanks for the help guys!

Cheap option would be two people holding a towel under your dog. One holding it on each side. It would be wider than the sling and disperse the pressure under the belly evenly. Hope your pup heals quickly.

That is what the vets do. They are to big to move by self
I feel like your vet should have suggestions but my thoughts are lots of dog pads and maybe even doggie diapers. Please don’t hurt yourself. It’s easier to clean up when you don’t ruin your back.
Thank you! She has never used a dog pad and has never pee/poo inside the house before, but they are definitely the best option right now
Use a bath towel like a sling for the hind quarters or the front quarters. We've had multiple 3 legged and paraplegic dogs. Our GP had 3 legs and surgery, so the sling to lift him and walk him outside works well. and you don't have to buy anything. He was big, he got a beach towel.
Hotel cart? Lol
These come with push handles.
Put a towel or sheet under the belly towards the back legs and it will allow her to walk with front legs and you just lift the back half. But it also depends on what the Vet recommends. They will give you the best advice.

TPLO surgery? If so, the recovery is rough but your dog’s happiness and lack of pain after they recover make it all worth it. The rescue I got my Saint from recommended Help Em Up Harnesses: https://www.google.com/gasearch?q=help%20em%20up%20harness&source=sh/x/gs/m2/5. I haven’t bought one yet since my Saint is young and thankfully healthy.
What about a beach cart where the front folds out? Something like this. https://www.walmart.com/ip/Ozark-Trail-All-Terrain-Big-Bucket-Cart-Wagon-Height-27-Blue/1122215036?wmlspartner=wlpa&selectedSellerId=0&wl13=2885&gclsrc=aw.ds&adid=222222222781122215036_117755028669_12420145346&wl0=&wl1=g&wl2=m&wl3=501107745824&wl4=pla-394283752452&wl5=9002206&wl6=&wl7=&wl8=&wl9=pla&wl10=8175035&wl11=local&wl12=1122215036&veh=sem_LIA&gclsrc=aw.ds&gad_source=1&gbraid=0AAAAADmfBIpMez3ldZljKt_2MXrgE_dNO&gclid=Cj0KCQjw8MG1BhCoARIsAHxSiQn5uVJnYGCZXQLGVl1l9eKdJb5PHDfxUwdIjdLFgMeBoy18HSTFVLgaAg1wEALw_wcB#gad_source=1
Wrap a towel around her middle. I did that with my lab after TPLO surgery. Got her back legs up and down the deck stairs.
If you have two people. You can slide a blanket under her and carry her. One person in front and the other in the rear. If youre alone you can create like a satchel with a sheet.
Ask about a Help 'em up harness - they work wonders. And get another person to help you move her so that you and her are not hurt in the process. If it's a TPLO surgery, they aren't terribly immobile for very long, generally just a week or two. Good luck!

Use the sling to lift in and out of a dog stroller …or wagon like this one
