I’m at my third YC company and it seems like each time what I thought my career was completely changed. I’m leading a whole company engineering team where at my last job I was a principal engineer who spent Covid working (sadly) alone.
My first I thought I’d be lucky to land a entry level gig and did so well I become the lead engineer over a couple of guys within a month (as soon as we found them.)
I would never have gotten that experience that fast. Sure looking bad I was a senior at entry level because I had practiced so much: but at a traditional corp I would have had to wait years to get to that level of experience where YC basically throws you at it and hopes you don’t fail
