So not only are you dealing with the standard fare interview nervousness, etc..., but you're also feeling claustrophobic the entire time. Brilliant process they've got up there. People look at me sideways when I tell them that I have no interest in working for places like Facebook or Amazon or Google and these sorts of anecdotes are some real high-quality validation after having had to justify that stance for years.
- Clubber 8y agoI would never work for one of those large companies. You really only need one household company on your resume during your career, then you can ignore them.
- ddtaylor 8y agoThat is exactly why I applied. I run a startup and we wanted to get the clout I was going to spend a year at FB as "time served" for the startup.
- linkregister 8y agoThose companies are the most visible places to get a high-paying job. They pay at the top of the market. Sure, a niche software company may pay its senior engineers higher, but even well-connected developers may never get any exposure to them. If you want to get that first house downpayment for the Bay Area, I'd say it's almost essential at this point.
