This last job search was between Amazon and Meta. I was at the offer stage of both. Then a third smaller company came in. I’m pretty sure the third could have been a whaling company and it would have been a less bad option. Was very happy to turn both of them down.
One who openly admits they’re fairly senior and living in one of the tech hubs oh no way. To be fair to people outside of the tech hubs, it’s absolutely nuts when you live near big tech. They’re always sort of… Looming. Like when homer was working at the bowling alley and then loses his job and it pans up to reveal the nuclear power plant looking over everything. Except it’s Amazon.
