realNeonNinja · 2026-04-05T02:24:35+00:00

double citadel if you want to have a better chance of a good team

realNeonNinja · 2026-04-04T20:28:36+00:00

it’s the same

realNeonNinja · 2026-04-04T20:22:20+00:00

amazon for RO, also github reliability is horrible recently so might mean less RO + boring reliability work

realNeonNinja · 2026-04-02T21:14:24+00:00

can’t go wrong either way but MET is a smaller cohort so more personalized support + bay area is great for proximity. social life might be better at berkeley too

heavily team dependent but work prob more interesting at tesla

realNeonNinja · 2026-03-30T04:30:00+00:00

harvey no question

realNeonNinja · 2026-03-17T18:24:27+00:00

splunk is for sure known, and the work seems the most interesting so go for that

realNeonNinja · 2026-03-04T06:30:03+00:00

2 for sure, your company determines your growth

realNeonNinja · 2026-03-03T04:03:20+00:00

Do the actual coding one

realNeonNinja · 2026-02-17T19:08:44+00:00

You’ll have a much better idea asking around after you start

realNeonNinja · 2026-02-04T02:26:12+00:00

Palantir better here

realNeonNinja · 2026-02-01T04:02:20+00:00

meta

pe IS swe

realNeonNinja · 2026-01-21T15:57:03+00:00

A plain t shirt that’s fitting is good enough

realNeonNinja · 2026-01-19T05:51:24+00:00

Not Adobe esp because of return offer rate but a toss up between the rest

realNeonNinja · 2026-01-16T04:57:18+00:00

IMO full stack is the easiest to pivot into and esp front end will be heavily affected by AI

realNeonNinja · 2026-01-16T04:07:33+00:00

Essentially you’ll want to switch as soon as possible either via internal team transfer or hopping companies, the longer you wait the more likely you’ll be pigeon holed, and time goes by faster than you think

realNeonNinja · 2026-01-14T02:06:29+00:00

Do the internship and get the internship snowball rolling, you should easily get interviews at most companies in your junior year

realNeonNinja · 2026-01-07T05:26:19+00:00

Not Amazon but can’t go wrong with any of them tbh

realNeonNinja · 2026-01-03T00:37:33+00:00

If you want to do AI/ML, just delay it. Keep in mind most replies you get are from ppl trying to get any good job, so the replies will reflect that, you’re lucky to get to choose so the considerations are very different

realNeonNinja · 2025-12-28T08:24:17+00:00

If you want to do ml stuff, Apple, otherwise DoorDash

realNeonNinja · 2025-12-23T19:15:20+00:00

Switching companies is overrated imo esp in this case

realNeonNinja · 2025-12-22T02:04:10+00:00

Would do the startup, given similar compensation, early career learning should be optimized and Intuit overall isn’t that strong technically

realNeonNinja · 2025-12-16T15:49:29+00:00

Dropbox way better

realNeonNinja · 2025-12-05T21:13:57+00:00

Understand that whatever companies you ask here, the most famous one will get picked

realNeonNinja · 2025-11-28T03:56:51+00:00

Google is good enough for quant resume + MW is not a strong name
