A big advantage to working at a BigCo is how it looks on your résume, or the "About Us" page of your own future startup.
I've seen so many hiring managers trip over themselves to hire former FANG employees, without knowing anything else about them. It's like graduating from an ivy league school.
There's also way more networking opportunities at big companies, merely because there's so many more people.
- gaius 8y agoIt's like graduating from an ivy league school. It is exactly like that. An optimal start to a career would be graduate from a top 10 college, 2 years at Google and/or 2 years at Goldman Sachs. That person would be guaranteed an interview anywhere they wanted probably for the rest of their careers. Not saying it’s good or bad but there is no denying the power of that kind of signal.
