- nwiswell 4y agoDo you think this was a constructive comment?
- JohnJamesRambo 4y agoWell yes. He seems to be going through some hell. Maybe a lowball offer would be better than that.
- treyfitty 4y agoIt was at a crypto trading platform who gave me a verbal offer, and then a month later tried to pull a fast one and wrote down an offer 50% less than what was discussed. When I probed, they responded “it’s out of my hands, leadership changed their needs…etc” The offer was a pay cut from my current, very boring, but stable role.
- bdcravens 4y agoThere's something to be said about boring and stable. I don't know how long you've been in your career, but I do know we're coming off a very long bull market for developer roles and salaries. That has created an expectation that our career must always be fun and fruitful. I've been doing this long enough that I've seen the other side of the market, and have gotten emails from talented developers desperate to get a job with the very boring company I was working with at the time.
