n-of-one here, but i worked at a rust belt company that was very similar to what was described above. Not quite as bad, but def along that way of the spectrum and not "free lunch wear whatever" of an sf startup.
- yesimahuman 5y agoRust belt company != tech startup/co though, right? We’re talking tech jobs at startups or later stage technology companies in the Midwest which are far more like typical tech startups elsewhere than not. Of course there are lots of shitty legacy companies here that would be awful to work for, but those companies exist everywhere
- vineyardmike 5y agoRust Belt company = company in the rust belt that hired me to write software/tech. Pretty sure we were talking about tech jobs in the midwest (rust belt incl.). Its not a tech startup, but its sure a tech job.
- yesimahuman 5y agoYea but my point is those companies are everywhere. If you go to work at a legacy company doing tech then you’re not working at the kind of company I’m talking about. Thankfully, tech companies that “get it” are far more numerous in the Midwest than even five years ago
