According to what we have learned on Fishbowl so far... wear Flip Flops, bring your spouse to make out with. Demand a 40% jump in pay. Insist on taking 2 weeks break before you start. And don't do anything to prepare for your first day, especially if it involves reading up on the company because that is probably "illegal". 🐟🍚 Shoo-in

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?
