Anyone exited into stripe?
I’ve put myself up for L4 promo this cycle. Assuming I get it, what would be the best next steps to optimize for long-term growth/TC?
My understanding is that L5->L6 is extremely painful at Google. It may be easier to leave for a handful of years and gain managerial experience before returning.
L4->L5 is less challenging; however, I’m under the impression I can do this quicker at another company (if I leave after being freshly promo’d) AND get higher TC.
TC: 270K

It's not like that lol. But it's not like that because of the way people vote, so don't come here to escape certain problems and then vote the same way again.
What a stupid take… we have a lot of homeless people and rising costs of living because of the way people vote. Instead of trying to address the problem republicans just try to make “public camping” illegal. The whole you can move here but don’t bring your blue state political views is the stupidest and most over used statement I see.
Agreed! Support those who are rising to the challenge. Mayor John Cooper just helped convince the Metro Council to approve an allocation of $50M in one-time federal funds to be used in a set of programs that’ll support developers of deeply-affordable housing, support temporary housing, fund housing-first support services and incentivize landlords and developers to relax restrictive barriers to housing. This just came thru in October.
It definitely depends on where you live in Nashville. Obviously, higher income areas have less visibility into the issues. Individuals experiencing homelessness are increasing in Nashville. If you drive through less affluent areas or anywhere around major intersections or interstate access it is rampant. Encampments are growing and popping up in more visible areas despite a law making public camping a felony. The resources are not here. Housing is not affordable and services are underfunded. We have some GREAT non profit organizations working hard to house people but they are definitely fighting a steep up hill battle.
Compared to Seattle this is nothing. It exists here, but not even close to the same scale.
Williamson County has a non existent visible homeless community as they pride themselves on picking up “vagrants” and dropping them off in Davidson County. True story.
Homelessness is increasing here too; it's bad.
I’m from CA, homelessness here is a non issue.
I spend a lot of time in Seattle, so even though I definitely notice homelessness in midtown Nashville where I live, it doesn’t even feel a tenth as widespread as in Seattle. That was actually a contributing factor in me not moving there even though I have a huge network there and a remote job.
People are moving here and the job market sucks.
There are pockets of homelessness but Nashville is way better than DC where i was just at if you can use that as a rubric.
Only been to Seattle once and it wasn’t bad then but it was 2018 and I stayed in the nice areas so can’t compare it now to Nashville
