oh damn

i really thought bb was better than amazon for comp

nvm LOL

yeah i realize that now

#

i thought bb was able to get to 220 fy 180 recurr

#

I have 151k base 10k sign on in boston, is that better or worse than the bb offer

proper dawn

and higher NY taxes

#

gotta do the math ig

id say to match u need at least 170 tc

im in the process for BB but idk if i want to spend more time interviewing for a comparable offer and i dislike nyc

oh i see

is NYC rent as bad as they say

#

I just completely bombed a codesignal yesterday (below 700 lmfao q2 was LC hard to do under time limit)

proper dawn
#

last i heard studio cost 5k a month

weak latch
#

If I get another codesignal do I have to send that one

hasty birch
weak latch
#

Or can I send them an older test

sonic coral
proper dawn
#

oh

#

yeah thats why im asking

weak latch
#

It would only be 5k for a studio if you go in midtown in the most luxurious complex

sonic coral
#

^^^

weak latch
#

Then maybe it’ll hit 5k

hasty birch
#

1 bedroom is like 4000+ iirc

sonic coral
#

if you go for like a brownstone/townhouse unit w/o laundry it'll prob be 2-3k

weak latch
#

5k can probably get you most 1 beds and some 2 beds in Manhattan

hasty birch
#

Studio is less than that

lament summit
#

would yall do bb or amazon robotics?

sonic coral
#

it highly depends on location tho

late kestrel
#

there are a million and a half neighborhoods around that all have their own prices

hasty birch
#

Also depends on location ofc, like Astoria and les is cheaper

lament summit
#

amazon robotics is fully remote and pays more than bb

sonic coral
#

yeah it varies tremendously

late kestrel
#

you can get a new 1b for ~2.5k in lic or astoria and thatd only be a 15-20m commute

lament summit
#

im doing fully remote from nyc for amazon robotics

sonic coral
#

lic is 2.5k+

tardy geode

guess im going to keep trying for BB then

seems like a better offer

Yo so does anyone know about if we can send older codesignal scores than the most recent one? I bombed samsara codesignal instead of sending my 737 and now I just got another codesignal from another company

So I’m going to ask a really dumb question. I’ve gotten a lot of rejections and a handful of OAs. I just got an email from palantir to schedule a 60 min video call interview. This is the first live coding problem interview thing that I have gotten and I’m just wondering if this is just like the regular automatic OAs for other companies and if palantir just typically does theirs live, or if I actually passed a resume screen and moved onto the next step lol.

Just got out of BB interview, I think I did pretty well.

We might have spent a bit more time than I wanted on the first problem with the pseudocode. But I finished the second one along with a follow-up pretty well.

The interviewer needed to walk through some bonehead errors like non-matching variable names. Do these count as red/yellow flags?

weak latch
#

Not seeing variable mismatches is a huge red flag

#

Imagine you shipped out code with mismatched variable names

#

That would be catastrophic

Take down the whole company

wtf is this list lol there's no methodology or anything

#

i just don't understand how they rank some of these startups tier 0 yet other ones of similar size doing well aren't even on the list

jaunty basalt
#

The list makes sense at the top, minus most of the startups

#

Prestige hunt is ok but it gets held down by the fact that the few people that give input can just troll and pick anything

#

Yeah it’s bad

teal jackal
jaunty basalt
#

But like they only part people agree with is the top top, apart from the startups

But those are so obvious

You don’t even need to mention it

Get rid of the startups and the top is literally generic

wind drum

and mongo is tier 2 lol

is expedia tagged on LC accurate?

The layman perception of the company shouldnt even matter for this list. Being a startup as well shouldnt be inherently affecting prestige
