Just wanted to rant about my interview process with Disney Streaming… The recruiter emailed me “I caught up with the team and I have updates for you! Can we get on a call tomorrow at 5-6 pm?” over a week after my final round. So ofc I take it as a good sign. Ends up flaking me at the proposed time, emails me at almost 11 pm asking for my availability next day. Flakes on me again at the time, I follow up and he says he’ll call at x time, and finally calls me over half an hour later. Continued 👇🏼

Jesus. Why would the recruiter even to that to themselves? Just send a damn email…Who do they think wants to be rejected over the phone?

And this recruiter ROUTINELY emails me past 10 pm every night, didn’t even set up my final round interview until the HM asked me what was going on. So when I get on the call, he tells me how much the team loves me, chit chats, etc. and finally we get to the point after 2 whole days of agony waiting for my offer: “the team decided to go with someone else”… THIS SHOULD HAVE BEEN AN EMAIL! Like even an automated email. Just pretty mad I was strung along like this… From what I hear this is not the one time thing from Disney recruiters

EXACTLY. He wasted so much of both of our times… I thought because he was so willing to reschedule so many times to finally get me on the phone, that this HAD to be a yes 😔

Received an offer at 300k/year and a Google offer at 200k/year.
I wanted Google since I started the whole interview process, but I am now not sure given the salary difference.

The position at Google is more junior and the team is just being formed, which involves more risk. However, I like the team at the other company.

The difference in salary is really considerable to push me to rethink this. Is it worth it? Can you share your experiences of when you accepted a lower job offer and why?

I’m trying to get out ASAP b/c he also has a history of firing clerks without cause or notice, but I think I’ll only be able to give two weeks notice if i get the job I’m interviewing for. Thoughts?

Question: do y’all really love this stuff and understand it? Or are you all on the “fake it til you make it” wave?

Some even do “night time reading” to catch up on the recent laws. I, on the other hand, cannot wrap my head around it most of the time and would rather not waste energy doing it. Is it just me?

Should a DevOps Cloud Engineer with 2 years experience earning around 10 LPA (base salary) in a Fortune 200, switch to a startup which pays almost 20 LPA base salary?
The reason to ask this question is, wouldn't it be difficult at the time of second switch, to move to another big organisation after one is already at 20-24 LPA with just 3-4 years of experience at a startup?
All thoughts are welcome.
