We spoke to 200+ talents at Big tech (FAANMGS) and we were shocked about what we learned. Contrary to what people think; the product engineering folks are not that busy. They basically work about 20hrs a week. Meanwhile, the early-stage fast-growing Startups we are speaking with are desperate to work with Silicon Valley FAANG experts to help them build better, and launch faster.

Are there founders out here who are looking to talk to us?

I am willing to talk but not a founder

I could talk about it. My SO is on product at a FAANG, and I started a start up.

@pwc2 I’d love to know more about it. Compliance and Reg Tech is super interesting

Thanks C1

Are you saying that you can source product engineers willing to moonlight for startups while they’re earning $200k+ to work part time at Faang?

Yes, we focus on only Experts in California and they work on gigs that doesn't compete with their current work

What does FAANMGS stand for?

or Salesforce?

Yesterday my boss scheduled a meeting with me for something he needed help with. He was 15min late & took a phone call from his boss during…10min. This has become a habit. At one point I even stoped scheduling our 1:1’s because he misses them so often but he realized a couple months later & told me to start scheduling them again. I told him they aren’t necessary but he insisted. What do I do? It makes me feel less important/unappreciated. I rather not even schedule to meet. Advice?

I am in the process of finding administrative assistant interns from our local universities. In an effort to make my job opportunity appealing, I am asking everyone in this bowl about an appropriate job title. Is "Administrative Assistant" outdated or unappealing? I certainly don't want to mislead anyone on the job responsibilities, but I do want to avoid any potential negative stereotypes attached to that job title. Are there alternative titles that you find more appropriate for 2022?
