Bless you PMs.

I've been interviewing with some companies, and now I have to decide between JPMorgan Chase and Globant.
Globant is more innovative, and has remote work. I will enter to work with a Sillicon Valley startup based in San Francisco. The tech stack is React, Nextjs, AWS, and a serverless architecture.
JPM is semi remote, and less innovative. The tech stack Java, SpringBoot and AWS. But I'd do more migration tasks, like dockerize projects and pass them to kubernetes. What would you choose?
McKinsey & Company Any advice to help prepare for data science analyst role at top consulting firms (McKinsey & Company EY Boston Consulting Group etc)?

I am a new grad who is working in tech as a marketing analyst I’m looking to pivot to marketing& sales data science consulting next year. Would like someone with similar backgrounds offer some practical tips.

8am in person meetings were not too early in many fields before the pandemic. Schoolchildren are typically in class in person at 8am too.
But if that's your line in the sand, you're free to pick it, but there is a good chance that you will look lazy or not fitting in with a hardworking or early-rising culture.
Most of time people are judge on small insignificant things like this and not on their actual work
I shake my head. I'm sorry, I won't sugar coat things for you or coddle you. You lack grit. Get up a little earlier. Then you'll be at work, WORKING, at 8am. Problem solved. Stop whining.
What a load of nonsense! Productivity is unlocked when people get to work on their optimal rhythms and we all have different circadian clocks!
They're paying you for your time, and you agreed to your contract when you started (or any updates since that you signed off on). Do you have set hours? Is 8am included in that time? If it is, and they can require you be in office for things, then you might not have much ability to push back with leverage. If you can argue that it's hurting your productivity and you can't do much about it (ie. you can't go to bed earlier to get up earlier/if you do it still doesn't help/or some kind of neurodivergence or disability is in the way), you may or may not have a better chance. Maybe some of those meetings can be asynchronous or shifted. But remember someone else might have a good reason to have them when they are currently too - they might not be able to do it much later. Hybrid meetings might work but perhaps your company/team isn't good at them yet, they're not something everyone automatically does well and online/in-person attendees can get left out or not allowed time to chime in or share their thoughts - I've seen it both ways.
this is how one intel interview was, show up at 8am, go to the benefits talk until 9, manager picks me up, go to 4 desks and meet, talk then its 1130, to to lunch till 1230 meet a few more, leave at 5pm
I thought you meant interviews. One company I was at wanted me to join the inner circle. It was a cult. I wondered why it was a closely bonded company. There were strange rituals and I laughed and said it was dumb. the next day more than fired.
I've worked for companies where everyone has gotten in and powered up their computers by 0700 hours (I started day 2 coming in at 0615-0630, day 1 I couldn't come in until after HR was in around 0730-0800). Morning meeting (face-to-face) was usually around 0730. Of course, we usually were out the door by 1530 (3:30 pm). I was usually out by 1500 hours. We never had late afternoon meetings face-to-face, of course.
