I have been prepping for almost 6 months now. I look at the stocks new hires get at my company and what my refreshers are. Companies seem to be relying on the fact, most people are too lazy to leetcode and will not give good refreshers. I have been with the company long enough that leaving and coming back atleast will add 600k to my earnings in the next 4 years. One thing however though I notice, that my coding speed has improved a lot by doing timed leetcode questions. I also look at the complexity of everything I write far more than I used to. Overall it looks like a win, win for me. The moment my company gave same level of stock as I would get in 2 years to a new college hire, I have decided to move. I have been with the company for more than 18 years. It is possible it is my company that does this. I hear goog refreshers are good.
