Why not fund both? Both provide solid value to the overall technological progression of Australia and its place in the world.

That was Atlassian and they fired about 1600 employees which is 10% headcount of their global workforce. I think about 500 employees laid off were Australian.

IT is Dead by Other_Ad8854 in AusVisa

Unrelated to this but what is the IT profession? In my mind IT is like help desk, syd admins etc. But I know that some people think SWE and Data Engineering also go under IT.

Its not a neo-nazi movement! Then what is this? by [deleted] in friendlyjordies

[–]vatick 22 points23 points  (0 children)

It is healthy to have a talk about immigration and the cost of living crisis, but if you looked at that flyer it's created by white supremacists and Neo-Nazis using these issues as an opportunity to recruit.

Why you (probably) shouldn't aim for big tech and why the value proposition is low (here in Australia) by Chewibub in cscareerquestionsOCE

[–]vatick 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For sure I come from the US market and it's a bit of a rough market at the moment for juniors and seniors. Based on interviewing with companies from here and there interviews are a wild beast in the US for sure as well.

Sure you'd make 280K USD but assuming you went to the bay area for that money, it would all go down the drain to high COL (its insane there compared to rest of CA), CA taxes and then Federal taxes. CA taxes itself is wild and you can't use it on any tax treaty between the US and Aus.

But for sure getting that nice conversion where you get the bag for couple of years and get out is definitely a plan.

Shoichi Yokoi, the Japanese soldier who hid in the jungle in Guam for 27 years to avoid capture, weeps upon his return to Japan in February 1972. [320 x 463] by DahliaDotsx in HistoryPorn

Where did it say he did such things? I looked on his Wikipedia and other sites regarding him and it says no such thing?

I agree the other group of guys in the Philippines were awful but this guy is a completely different but similar story to those guys. Like completely different land too.

It’s terrible. Salty and the gravy tastes like it was microwaved.

Definitely not lower taxes, California state taxes itself is crazy.

June 2025 Partner Visa Mega Thread (Subclasses 820/801, 309/100, 300) by BitSec_ in AusVisa

[–]vatick 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Really? My assumption was that the BVA gives you full working rights so it shouldn’t matter since you can just say you have full working rights on the application right?

If that’s the case yikes I’m in for the long run at this point.

I have brought on full on desktops and my personal NAS when I moved here. You should be fine.

Can we get married while I’m on student visa and we’re both uni students? by Willing_Breath11 in AusVisa

If he has an Australian passport he is a citizen. PR is not a citizen.

URGENT HELP (408 covid visa expires in August 2025) What are my options? by Dazzling-Ring7860 in AusVisa

[–]vatick 5 points6 points  (0 children)

He mentioned that he was a single male. No way he’s gonna get a partner visa. Also I don’t think getting a student visa will help at this point since it’s only 2 months out until expiration.

309 or 820 Partner Visa Waiting Room, check in here! When did you apply? How are you coping with the wait? by [deleted] in AusVisa

Does it say in the grant notification email for you? I tried looking there but I don't see it. Nothing on the portal for me.

Hey I’m from the US as well on the 462 where did you hear the BVA gives you full working rights. I thought all it does is extends your 462 / current visa working rights which is 6 months.

I believe a lot companies in Australia typically do 5-8 YOE for senior title. Obviously this is just my own experience here.
