I've been trying to find a meaningful job at a BCorp or other socially/environmentally responsible company for a while.
Sadly, it doesn't seem like you get a lot of chances as a Software Engineer, since most of the corporations just offer services or physical products.

- msesen 3y agoSadly none of them operating in Germany and/or don't have open roles. I assumed so as well. I thought it would be an easy task to get a job in that sector, you know how it is as a SE. But it turns out a lot of those companies either do some form of (non-technical) consulting or offer actual physical products. You don't need a guy doing backend stuff for tasks that a shopify page can solve.
