Neither option sounds all that good (that particular AWS offer sounds scary: if he's "estimating" 45-50 hours, why doesn't he know? It is probably more). Stay at MS for now and keep looking for the right position (including at AWS).
- locusofself 5y agoSigh. These were not the first two interviews I did, I interviewed at several startups offering remote work etc but didn't get hired. I'm really burned out on interviewing.
