You will make possibly the best work of your career at MAL but be prepared for your job to become the number one priority in your life (your free time, relationships, hobbies, and possibly health will take a back seat). If you’re open to that and in the right stage of life to go all in, take the leap. This isn’t meant to be snarky- it’s just the reality (speaking as someone who spent 3.5 years there). And yes once you work at MAL you can pretty much go anywhere afterward so it’s good for your career.

Didn’t realize that was a factor from your post. I mean if you’re doing better work than Apple or care about WLB then stay at your place.
