Makes me feel lucky to be in my job, and a jolt of gratitude every-so-often is a welcome thing, so thank you.
I work with 8 other senior or senior-ish engineers, we are all basically taking a slight paycut (not too much, maybe 80-90% of rates we might get elsewhere) to work for a non-profit making interesting stuff for kids, and everyone is genuinely nice and fairly hard-working.
I wonder if the "taking a paycut to do something actually interesting and worthwhile" is part of it.
- iAmAPencilYo 6y agoHi, could you share a little of what you do? It didn't even cross my mind I can work for a non-profit, still get paid (not top dollar) and have a good community impact (kids in your case). Thanks!
