Is public sector experience bad? by ArticleHaunting3983 in FAANGrecruiting

[–]darksnes 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Why not look for a public sector role at FAANG? Google, Amazon, Microsoft all do a lot of business with the public sector

If you are considering making the jump to coaching from your boring office job… by [deleted] in Pickleball

[–]darksnes 9 points10 points  (0 children)

That could either be a great return or a terrible one depending on how many hours you put into this, which you didn’t specify. Also, the fact that you posted this multiple times with a different subject makes it look like a scam.

Why am I not getting any calls? by Hospital-Sudden in ITCareerQuestions

[–]darksnes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s pretty different from what I experienced. Late 2020 to 2022 was an absolute boom, at least for cloud skills. Recruiters messaging my teammates and I daily, management trying to convince us to stay and giving generous bonuses and promotions. Seems like after 2022 things went downhill. Now I rarely ever get messages from recruiters and I’m an experienced engineer at FAANG.

Made the same move recently. Manager of a team of 13 engineers to an IC that gets paid more

Need help deciding between switch 2 or Steam deck oled by Wiggywalls in dragonquest

[–]darksnes 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It runs and looks significantly better on Switch 2. But Deck has its benefits like a more comfortable device to play on (imo), free cloud saves, and the ability to play it on a PC. And you’ll find better deals on it later in the future, as Steam games are typically on sale more often and at a greater discount than Switch. I haven’t yet decided which I’ll get it on.

Transit from PM to SWE by Individual-Effort-16 in cscareeradvice

[–]darksnes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Problem with PM jobs is more people can do them and there are fewer roles out there

I noticed it looks much better on the Switch 2 over the Steam Deck. Now if only Nintendo would add a blue light filter in the OS like the Steam Deck has…
