I would like to hear more about my European fellows w.r.t. how GDPR affected their ability to muster domain knowledge. I used to work for a small start-up and the CTO was very strict on data access, making my life as feature developer and &

It is really impossible to say. There are just too many variables to consider here. For example: Some CrossFit gyms have more offerings than just the traditional WoDs. E.g.: your friend might have be mixing mobility training, strength, card

At least to my own experience, I would say, the variation is gym to gym, depending on the instructors background / experience (or lack-of) and less between countries.

well, what can I say, this company had a real problem following the union agreements and EU laws: no paid extra hours (on-call), no notice, no paternity leave according to local laws, etc. On the other hand, was really adamant to keep the 9

Not my experience in Europe though. My last two employers here constantly over promised (e.g.: unlimited vacations/parental leave, flexible hours, work from home, etc) and really really under delivered. I would rather have things set i

I found the USA visa system much more sensible (yet outdated) than most of European countries I lived in (no European citizen here). USA, with exception of China and India, have a quite clear and manageable path for citizenship. Denmark for

Came here to say this. I am a minority but never found myself misplaced in the USA. The country I came without much to offer but honest work and positive/open mind. Whereas in Europe I've been victim of physical abuse just because
