If you don't mind me asking, what strategy do you use to find jobs? Is salary more important to you than equity? Or do you also value benefits/perks? (Ps. I'm the author of this article and am just curious about what exactly motivates you.)
Is money the main driver? If so, do you do freelance work or do you always seek full-time employment? Thanks in advance :)
- whipoodle 9y agoI’m just always trying to find somewhere that’s better. If I can make a better salary and get a better job, great. If I can make the same salary but get more equity, in a company that seems likely to be successful, great. (I’m doing that last one now.) It’s not much of a strategy, just realize that loyalty is a mugs game and none of these places actually care about an individual employee, so neither should you care about them. I don’t freelance because I know I would hate all the non-technical parts of the job, and I don’t have much of a network because people drive me crazy so it would be hard to get work in the door. The idea appeals to me though, in the sense of working a job for a while and then not working for a while.
