I'm in New York at Knewton.
We do a lot to mitigate mistakes (code reviews, testing, rigorous QA), but when they happen I'm not getting the switch.
We're taken care of w.r.t wages and time. Hours are totally interchangeable here--if I arrive 45 minutes late, I make it up on the back end. I'm also taking care of a graduate degree out-of-pocket (speaks to both the wage and time thing).
I won't speak to arrogance (fallen into this trap, and you don't want to be the guy asserting falsehoods matter-of-factly), but junior devs shouldn't be afraid of assertiveness. I wasn't happy about something here, and when I was asked to discuss it with our tech management team they (a) listened and (b) acted on it immediately. That's big.
