I was there for almost 3 years, in what were “the best of times” pre and post IPO. I’ve heard it’s not the same environment, which is a bummer. Also made a small fortune there, which was nice.

I think gitlab is old for the new lab that was just constructed.
So the problem is not the problem. The problem is your attitude towards the problem. So my question is what is the problem? 😔

I personally haven’t heard anything negative. What type of role?

If it is an actual offer you are contemplating then go for it, if you are just applying to a job opening, I think they may be guilty of fake/ghost job posting. I see a lot of repeat roles over the last 6 months.

applied many times to gitlab and get rejected everytime. I am now wondering if I should continue in IT or not after 20 years.

So I get that in a corporate set up, you are supposed to be sharp and witty and think on your feet. Trouble is, I am extremely slow with comebacks. (Think Ross in Friends/Amy in B99) at the crunch moment, I generally end up not being able to give a good roast back. Unfortunately the best of them come to me like a few hours later (dinner/shower/TV) and I am left ruing and amazing opportunity to have gotten one back. I am awful at jibes and roasts.

Anyone else suffer from this?

Although Amazon has instituted a hiring freeze and layoffs are probably on their way, I went through the loop for a security engineer position at AWS. Before I attended the final interviews, Amazon placed the hiring freeze and called me to ask if I wanted to go ahead or cancel my application. I decided do go ahead Right now I'm waiting for their response and the position I applied to changed from "under consideration" to "no longer under consideration". Thoughts?

However, I am worried if I accept the tech role and I do not become permanent I will be looking again for a job in 12-24 months and my CV won't be showing a managerial position. Won't be showing any progress.

I am starting a 4-months internship at a company B in January. However, I just heard from a company T that they will interview me for their full time position.

Company T is paying me way more (twice) than Company B. And I like company T more. However, they want me to start working in February if I get this position. If I end up getting the offer, I will have to quit my internship at Company B, almost immediately after I begin the internship.

Is this okay?
