I'm eleven years into a FAANG company. It pays well enough that I can be the only earner in the family, and on my particular team, it's not demanding on my time. I work from home most days, I leave the office a couple of times a day to pick up my kids from school or go grocery shopping. The work is interesting enough to grow but not particularly stressful. Frankly, it's an ideal place to be while I focus on what's important: my family, and where possible my hobbies.
I don't feel particularly bound to my position. If work stops being comfortable, or if I got uncomfortably bored, or if someone offered me a sufficiently huge pay increase, I might take it, but why mess with a good thing?
- quickthrower2 4y agoI imagine 0 yoe at FAANG would pay enough to support a family :-)
- websap 4y agoNope, not if you live in any major city.
- pm90 4y agoNot really, not in high CoL areas at least. Move to nowheretown USA and then probably. But most companies will adjust pay for such moves.
