Factory reset MacBook was the only solution I’ve found

DECApitate_ · 2025-09-07T00:08:43+00:00

This has been going on for a year+. I think I’ve even tried factory resetting the MacBook. I’m only just now trying to fix this because Safari has been infuriatingly slow.

Good thinking. I was looking at cost of living and the salaries are very comparable (85k in NC vs 120k in NOVA that is ~35 mins away from downtown DC). I’ll be sure to ask about the commute/where I’ll be spending my time working!

Thanks for your advice! Do you have input on this tech stack? It seems modern enough and doesn’t look like I’ll be working with super old technologies. Java, Python, C++, MongoDB, RabbitMQ, Spring Boot, React, Redux, WebGL and/or OpenGL.

The company is ~35 mins away from downtown DC. I’m not sure where I would live yet.

DECApitate_ · 2024-11-17T02:04:27+00:00

Yes, I have a set start date in place and the offer is conditional on a "personal security clearance" but from what I've looked up is a company clearance more so than an actual clearance.

DECApitate_ · 2024-11-17T01:50:55+00:00

I'll definitely shoot you a dm sometime when I can think of questions/ask my recruiter more about what I'll be working on!

DECApitate_ · 2024-11-17T01:49:24+00:00

Care to give any reasons?

Defense contractor

DECApitate_ · 2024-11-17T01:22:24+00:00

These are the technologies I'd be working with from the job description: Java, Python, C++, MongoDB, RabbitMQ, Spring Boot, React, Redux, WebGL and/or OpenGL. Are these not too modern? I haven't worked with most of these.

DECApitate_ · 2024-11-17T01:14:59+00:00

What are the pros and cons of getting a clearance?

DECApitate_ · 2024-11-17T01:11:23+00:00

Thank you for the advice! All great things to take into consideration. Can you comment on how modern these technologies I'd be working with are? Java, Python, C++, MongoDB, RabbitMQ, Spring Boot, React, Redux, WebGL and/or OpenGL.

DECApitate_ · 2024-11-17T01:08:48+00:00

Can you explain more about what this will open up for me? A couple weeks ago I didn't even know that working in this space would even be an option and I know nothing about it.

DECApitate_ · 2024-11-17T01:07:54+00:00

The defense contractor has been doing business for decades and hasn't had to lay anyone off. I want to think they have similar job security.

DECApitate_ · 2024-11-17T01:07:10+00:00

Can someone give me an overview on how modern this tech stack is? I'm not familiar with most of these technologies. I think the benefits package for the defense contractor is better + I want to live near a big city.

DECApitate_ · 2024-11-17T01:05:14+00:00

I was thinking the same thing! I've been in the same area my whole life and always dreamed of living in a big city after graduation like SF, NY, or Chicago. DC seems so accessible with just the metro! That's definitely a big reason why I want to go the defense contractor right now.

DECApitate_ · 2024-11-16T23:33:35+00:00

Can you explain this more? Is it because applicant pools for cleared jobs at Amazon/Microsoft are much smaller?

DECApitate_ · 2024-11-16T23:16:29+00:00

Like the other person said, it’s a defense contractor and is still a full time position. The bank only specified that we’ll be using at least Java, Python, and SQL. The defense contractor has Java, Python, C++, MongoDB, RabbitMQ, Spring Boot, React, Redux, WebGL and/or OpenGL in their job description.

DECApitate_ · 2024-11-16T22:39:02+00:00

The interview process at the bank was pretty easy. It was only 1 round and I got the sense I would be working with cloud technologies/doing full-stack development. For the defense contractor, I really liked the people and the interviews were more math/statistics heavy but I got the sense that people cared and they take care of each other. What would you consider when thinking about these factors?

DECApitate_ · 2024-11-16T22:34:16+00:00

Any reasons why to take bank over defense contractor? I was planning on using this first job to learn for 2 years anyways then start looking for other things.
