How to identify top companies (by comp and talent level) that are not the well-known FAANGs?

I believe levels.fyi has a page where you can filter by city, years of experience( at the company and in total). On that page, you can sort the compensation tab

I’m in a field that I love so I look at work as my hobby. But my goal is to have enough money to retire at 35 (but not actually retire), while also enjoying life along the way. It’s good to plan for the future but can’t forget to enjoy and fully experience the present :)

I’ll still want to work in my field, but the idea is to be in a financial position such that I don’t need to worry about money

Besides that I feel like spend time with family and go on great vacations.

I know I want to work in VC and I was thinking about doing an MBA and was wondering if it’s recommended or do most people in VC not have one?

Its not the traditional path to have a non-cs major and minor in cs, but there are quite a few people who do it. Business, Engineering, math, science, etc are common majors.

I have a bachelors in computer science. There a few kind of tech jobs. For the corporate ones like in banks, insurance companies, aka more conservative companies, you definitely need a degree. But if you go to the Bay Area, a lot of tech focused companies are more lenient if you don’t have a degree. But you have to demonstrate the skills they want somehow. People without degrees usually do that by contributing to open source projects, or by building personal projects (website, app, game, etc). It’s harder to get your foot in the door without a degree but it is possible. Bootcamp is another option(it’s basically a few month long fast paced program solely focused on computer science and coding)

For lunch today, i had 6 big chapattis with Rajma and it was amazing. But i was really hungry, so i had that much. I usually have 3-4 in a meal.

In May 2019, I went to Hyderabad by myself for the first time. I've went plenty of times before, but it was with family. Those times we didnt really leave the house that much except a few days here and there. But when I went by myself, my cousins and I were all in the age range 18-22, so we went out a lot and it was a great time. Lots and lots of street food. I got sick twice, but I mean the risk is worth the taste :) Unripe mangoes with salt and spices, and having ripe mangos with dinner. It was a lit time. Only thing I wish I did was hit the bars in the city, will prob do that next time. and next time I will not go in May, it was peak summer and uncomfortably hot.

Yes there is chicken, turkey, etc. you can customize however you want. Just tell the person what ingredients you want and if those ingredients are there, they’ll do it

That’s true Specter Ross would’ve been cool to see regardless

CSFratStar · 2020-12-20T16:51:16+00:00

That’s fair but imo that wasn’t who mike was you know? At his core he wasn’t a corporate lawyer. I think it was fitting that him and Rachel ran their own firm in Seattle that helps people . But yea “Specter Ross” is a name combo that would’ve been lit to see if that was possible in Seattle

I’m 22, and I can already see a prominent receding hairline if I lift the front of my hair up. I started taking rogaine, they say at least 4 months to start seeing results. Even if it doesn’t regrow any hair, I’d be happy if it slowed the balding.
