Who do you think is going to be jealous of you being miserable in a job and location you don't even like?

How long will you survive at FAANG if there is discord in the relationship before day 1?

Especially if it's a up or out FAANG company.

Other industry offer, especially since pay is the same. Bad boss is probably the biggest reason people hate their jobs and then decide to leave.

Never take a job if you don’t like hiring mana
