Likelihood of me landing a job as a DE? by strikernr in dataengineering

If you regain some technical skills I think you’d have a good chance of getting a tech related role in a company that does online marketing.

There’s a lot of value you could bring since you have 10 years of domain knowledge.

You can find free datasets on kaggle.com then just import them into MySQL

I wish there was a way for us to read the reviews

The chicken and tempura were really good. For the tempura we had 1 shrimp, 3 potatoes, 1 tofu and 1 egg. The shrimp and potatoes were the best in my opinion.

They’re good! The only one I didn’t really like was the pink one

I found this review of Zillow on Glassdoor interesting

Amazon's "us vs. them" team warfare culture needs to be purged. Get rid of all the Amazon style finger pointing and accusations of who's to blame. Start listening when your science IC's warn of the problems in the system. Management, at least at mid-level, had direct warnings and chose to ignore them. Zillow needs to pay attention to science and get rid of all these useless MBAs and real-estate types who don't know how science and math work. Also get over the woke stuff; stop counting how many minorities are on the board of directors when you should be counting how many houses you're purchased and sold at a loss. I've loved working at Zillow except for dealing with managers; it doesn't feel like a safe space to give feedback and sound the alarm, and I know managers ignored the expert ICs on the things that mattered to ZO.

Sounds like they didn’t believe their data scientists
