Haha @EP1 you either don’t work in SF or you work/worked at the wrong place(s)

It’s comments like EP1s that make fish such a flaming pile of misinformation and garbage sometime. Yes, SF doesn’t have as many shops LA or NYC, but there’s solid work coming out of places like Goodby & Venables...better than most of tech in house.

Awe. Did I hurt your feelings guys? There hasn’t been good work coming out of SF in over a decade (I’m looking at you Goodby!) I manage a whole team in SF from another office and it’s the worst group we have out of the 4 office I manage. Can’t keep good people cause they all bolt for tech companies and can’t fire the bad because there’s not enough talent to fill gaps.

Someone ASKED for opinions about SF and I gave mine based my my 6 years working with SF agencies at 2 different companies

Zach Canfield at Goodby. Or Jessica Kassel at Heat. Or Katie Ramp at Mutayzek hoffer. Or plenty of other agencies around.

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?

I have been talking to a recruiter for a little over a month about a position. I let her know out the gate that I really wasn’t looking to change jobs, but she just kept wanting to continuing the conversation.

I’m having my annual review this week. Any advice on how to handle a) job offer b) review?

It’s hard to be motivated when rounds of layoffs happen and you see all your friends leave. But one thing that’s gotten me through all of this is working out. And when I say workout I mean the most pathetic, sad, barely completed beginner-level cardio dance routines. I’ve somehow forced myself to move while on lockdown and it’s somehow forced me to feel better. Whatever you’re doing, wherever you are: get up and move even if you don’t finish or end up going on a walk. Pls take care of yourself❤️
