So I used to work for this shady Series A funded startup in Mumbai. Our CEO was a drug addict who funnelled money back to a lobbyist on the VC side. They paid INR 1.2 Crores for their logo to a "creative agency", just one of the many dodgy expenses they made including multiple so-called official trips to exotic locations like Hawaii. Till date their SAAS product has not found a single buyer. The CEO's girlfriend was the Sales Director whose job was to wear skimpy dresses for business meetings.

Haha! This was 5 years ago. They are getting punished with their own deeds, the company is not doing well. No Series B finding either🤣

From drug addict. Do you mean he smoked weed a lot?

If only it was just weed. A former colleague of mine who is a SAAS sales specialist told me that a junior member from his team got sacked just because he stopped dealing in Heroine for him. Spiking coke and fanta with Vodka during team events like cricket was a regular affair apart from smoking weed.

Guys, I got an offer letter from Tata Consultancy

Few observations I have where I need your suggestion.

1. Fixed Basic is only 18% of CTC. I think the only benefit from this is lower Retirals deductions.

2. There is one "Personal allowance" that is almost 70% of the BoB. Any benefit from this on tax?

Website question: is it bad to have a few spots that are over five years old? I keep them down at the bottom and the majority are much newer so they sort of serve as a ‘best of’ my older work.

How did you tell your manager you’re pregnant? Did it affect pay/promos? And then, subsequently, how did you start letting colleagues know you’re pregnant? Feels awkward to just randomly drop the news in a meeting! I work remotely so it’s hard to tell by video :) I’m 21 weeks and feel like I’ve waited as long as I can to at least notify my manager. I was waiting to negotiate my salary for next year but per company trend that doesn’t get set until January (manager reviews are written in Dec).

Let’s say I sell 10 covered calls on a stock that expire 45 days out and make 1k premium. On day 5 the options I sold are down 80%, so I buy them back for 200 dollars, making 800. What do I do next? It’s still 40 days out if I sold more for that expiration, but premiums are basically dead. Do I sell for an even farther date or wait for a green day to sell again?

Is $75kpa enough for two in USA, Georgia, Duluth?

I think post tax deductions I should get around 4.5k per month.

Please advice.

Current CTC is 14.2lpa.
However I have a 9 yoe and current stack is GCP, Python,Airflow etc for data engineer.
If i switch chances are I can get a 20lpa+.

5+ years of full-time job as developer and still waiting to reverse a LinkedList at work.

Since there is a heavy impetus on solving Tree, LinkedList, and Graph problems for tech interviews, it can naturally make freshers believe that these concepts will be used in day-to-day life at work. In reality, most of these DSA concepts are already implemented in some libraries our code uses and we rarely have to code such Algorithms by hand.

Problem solving skill >>> DSA
