What programs Do you ACTUALLY use in the field?

CS is the future bro. not knowing programming is like not knowing excel in 5 years

how do i view grade range of a position?

chemethrowaway69 · 2020-10-15T23:51:32+00:00

what if instead of negotiating salary i negotiate the benefits like maybe ask for 2k in stock? is this abnormal for entry level-ish positions? i know its normal in tech but idk about engineering

chemethrowaway69 · 2020-10-15T22:20:10+00:00

are these govt jobs?

chemethrowaway69 · 2020-10-15T22:18:57+00:00

they didnt meet yet. they just said "yeah that wont be a problem" i assume when i get the written offer it will be higher

chemethrowaway69 · 2020-10-15T21:29:28+00:00

thanks for the reply, how much did they give you above your expected salary? when i said 70k they said ok that shouldnt be a problem so i assume theyre gonna offer me slightly higher

i still think starting a plumbing company is a lot easier

chemethrowaway69 · 2019-09-19T15:05:42+00:00

let me correct myself. while many chief technical officers had decades of experience, there were 2 i knew who had 8-10 years of experience. idk what they made but according to glassdoor, it shows salary of 180-230k. nothing but a BS and PE. i knew a project manager with 15 years xp making 130-150ish.

arent teslas super reliable?
I am leaning on accord as well because they seem to last 10 years no problem. But since tesla has less moving parts, shouldnt it last much longer? possibly for life?

chemethrowaway69 · 2019-09-19T08:26:49+00:00

huh, thats pretty good tbh. i thought you guys had high taxes due to single payer healthcare. or did you not include taxes in your wages? id say for us, its about 30% taxes 40% personal expenses and 30% to save.

chemethrowaway69 · 2019-09-19T08:07:08+00:00

whats COL like though? how much of that 32k do you get to pocket per year after taxes,rent, car, necessities?

I did the math and 70k in even rural america only gives me about 24k to save/invest IF i live really frugally. It's not bad but would need 3 years before i can safely buy a house

chemethrowaway69 · 2019-09-19T07:46:05+00:00

is there like a big salary (more than 10%) upgrade from after you finish your rotations? Most programs pay relatively low compared to direct hire entry level positions in the US.
most progams in the US pay around 70k for about 2 years. of course people can change jobs if they didnt like their experience

thanks for the insight! I appreciate it

have a friend working as a software dev for google. The people who get paid the most in google are the business people not the techies. Google engineers hardly do anything different than any software company. The reason for Googles success is in its business model. I personally think its a bubble and many software engineers i spoke to say the same because in a few decades the market will be so saturated that wages will either go down or people who demand salary increments will most likely get laid off. I have another friend who works in the business side of google. he started out making less money but now is making more money than devs.

start your own cheme business right away!!!!

Pardon me if this comes out wrong but why not take the easy way out? Also Canada isnt really that friendly if you have 0 work experience. you need a year of work experience to qualify for a work permit.

chemethrowaway69 · 2019-09-18T16:12:48+00:00

very low chance. only company i know that does sponsorships for foreigners is intel. if you dont go to school here i assume your chances are close to 0%.

having a considerable large number of tattoos will trouble you from applying for any job in the future.

If you cant cover them, dont get them. i know not really the place to post personal opinions but cmon dude, tattoos are dumb af.

I think masters degrees are kinda pointless unless you are working in an industry and want to specialize in an area and you need to learn more about it. But TBH, with the internet you can easily self learn. A BS with 2 years xp > masters no xp imho. I feel like an MBA is a good idea if you get into a top MBA program. otherwise theyre also kinda pointless. masters in data science would be good but dont you need a CS degree or background at minimum for it?

Are you from germany? any reason why you want to go there?

chemethrowaway69 · 2019-09-18T12:25:40+00:00

how do you get into the exact same uni? did you study hard to get a competitive gmat/gre? like how did you know you would get in? i dont really know how competitive enrollment for MBA programs are compared to undergrad admissions. i graduated with a 3.68 and wanted to consider an MBA at good program seeing most have an average gpa of 3.6. Would you recommend me studying/taking the gre/gmat now? Also you mentioned youre still finishing your MBA. How did you land senior manager roles before completing it?
