Really? I just scrolled through two months of reviews and saw 3 out of ~50 that scored 3 stars rather than 5 and even mentioned WLB or culture

Depends on what you’re looking for, really. While traveling with my last firm, my commute (at the client site) was a 7 minute walk in, which was cool, but I worked 7-7 and didn’t get to see friends/family/my hobbies until Thursday night.

I’m sure commutes do swing in NYC and SV, but the company tries hard (at least that’s been my experience in Seattle) to staff you in locations that are reasonable for you to get to (or if they aren’t, to push for a remote work option with the client).

In some markets it strikes me that not traveling is worse than traveling e.g SV and NYC where your commute could swing by an hour or more

Slalom stuff always varies by location 🤷‍♀️ no problem in PDX right now...

Hi, I'm working at a product based company, I joined as a fresher and it has been 3 years, I have not been able to get an Offer in last 6 months of Interviewing with companies like Amazon, Cisco, Akamai, Paypal and ServiceNow, but I have got an Offer from startup for almost an 80% hike.

So I have been seeing a guy for 4 months. We have a pay disparity.. he earns less than I do (by quite a bit). He has mentioned a few times that he’s worried I’ll get bored of him when I know he can’t afford the same things I can. I think we are beginning to move past this, but now he’s starting to mention things like ‘I am really broke this month’, and last weekend he told me his mum has lost her job and he’ll have to probably pay her rent. I have a lot of sympathy for his situation … tbc
