Now I want to apply to companies like Nvidia Texas Instruments Qualcomm NXP Without any prior experience I am a bit nervous as people say the interviews would be very difficult in these.

Guys , whoever is interviewing and planning to join , do ask project availablity on priority basis before you take decision. On Java front looks like there is some project issue due to recent slowdown in market. My offer was not revised even after agreement with recruiter because of this.

I tend to overwork myself and it’s really taking a toll on my mental well-being. I want to learn a lot and prove myself to my superiors so that they recognize me/see value. Now my work has a sense of dread to it. I watched my parents be workaholics growing up, so it’s all I know. I’m also goal-oriented and driven, so achieving a lot scratches that itch for me. But, it’s making me want to quit cause I’m burned out and depressed….im not sure what to do. Any suggestions would be helpful.

When theres a recession coming lol
My concern is less about difficulty of work and more around moving/arbitrary metrics. I've had jobs where I was top 10% for production and QA, but got a substandard evaluation because my boss really cared about how many people saw me on a video call. Which of course directly impacted my bonus. Even when I pointed out that video calls has zero benefit for the company or client and that I was double the production of my average peer, I was told "too bad."
Another reminder these companies don’t care about us despite us killing it in our jobs. Also, some bosses are beyond incompetent, crazy how much power they have.
Consistency. I’ve done sales. I have made top rank in my region. But nothing compares to a consistent paycheck.
Family and bills….

I work strictly commission and wouldn’t have it any other way. I remember starting out, though and the fear of the unknown got me! I have to remember that consistency is key and I love my freedom
It could be better, but it also could be worse especially if you’re just starting out and have to build a book of business/pipeline. It could take months to get a first meager paycheck, and a lot of folks don’t have enough savings to hold them indefinitely until they start earning. Unless there was an assurance for some amount of money coming in (or I had 0 bills and lived with my parents) I wouldn’t take a 100% commission job just because I’m too risk averse and the worst outcome is I make nothing.
Job security. Always hear about sales ppl getting cut. I get there’s a quota expectation but just seems risky. It’s a shame because I think I’d be really good at it.
