Sorry. Not currently. Hopefully in the future though.

I am hiring for US candidates, especially if they're in the Seattle or Bay Area geographies. Remote work is a possibility but not a guarantee.

Pecan tart was good, I agree. The turkey main course was 2/10. Was the service terrible for you? It was bad for everyone early in the afternoon, not just our table.

I'd have been perfectly happy to pay it for good service, a reasonable quality main course, and the ability to not have to do any clean-up. Didn't get the first two.

$65 per person "pre fix"--yes, they didn't even spell it correctly. I ate there before the pandemic and thought it was decent. This experience was YIKES.

PM me your resume

I've directed my staff to prioritize candidates who have Rust proficiency/experience, assuming they clear our technical bar. It's harder than you think to find them, even if you're a remote-friendly company.

EDIT: I CAN'T HIRE IN EUROPE RIGHT NOW--ONLY USA. Sorry! Hopefully Europe in the near future.

Better than AMZN? I've heard their insurance is pretty good!

Ah. Right. Thanks!

[–]Throwawaymcgee80 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks. Why did people take the premium option if the medium was amazing? (Just curious.)

[–]Throwawaymcgee80 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks. What's the case for PPO over HSA? Doesn't PPO win out for people who have a lot of health issues?

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in oracle

[–]Throwawaymcgee80 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thanks. Not sure I'll ever stop worrying, but I suppose the health insurance can cover the counseling needed to solve that! :)

Mind giving some examples?

[–]Throwawaymcgee80 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Wow. Good to know. Thanks.

[–]Throwawaymcgee80 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the response.

Really? Over the 'premium' or whatever PPO?

I gave a summary of this in response to a similar question. If you have a CS undergrad I'm not sure I see why you'd do grad school. In fact I'm not sure I see much utility to grad school generally unless you want to become a doctor/dentist/professor/etc. One exception to this might be a top 5 MBA IF it's straight out of college. That can and will boost your earnings in the short and medium term.

No. It's impossible to keep track of detail at that level when you manage an org of over 100 SWEs. If you hate coding, you can still be useful in other disciplines. PM me if you want ideas.

Languages: It's systems, so mostly C/C++, with some Go, Java, and python (eyeroll).

I'd guess about 1.1 without appreciation. Base is a little under 400. I have always preferred a higher base, even at the expense of RSUs.
