rare iron

my instincts r saying ttd or aws
aws def has a better resume name than any of the other two
rare iron
better brand name + youd be working on a technology that half the tech world uses
hardy yoke

low quail
Yeah
hardy yoke
but AWS clearly
rare iron

low quail
Lowk id go ttd for money
pallid charm

hardy yoke
Nah aws opens more doors
pallid charm
i vote anduril tbh
hardy yoke

low quail
Anduril is better aws and ttd though
rare iron
<@1046885921158615130> do u know recruiter cg?

pallid charm
but anduril is hyped
hardy yoke
also anduril pay isn't gonna be that goo
pallid charm
isn't anduril relative to pltr
pallid charm
yk the aws team?
fresh dawn
aws will overwork you, go with ttd -cg
hardy yoke
ttd doesn't have any res value
winged vector
I don’t think he knows the aws team
rare iron
ttd doesn't have any res value
ragebait bruh
ornate mist
Anduril mogs
hardy yoke
ragebait bruh
it doesn't
ornate mist
And if compensation is a consideration their equity is gonna go crazy after ipo
hardy yoke
like the pay is shockingly very good, but no res value
rare iron
ttd is somewhat well known imo
winged vector
Is ttd really that bad? Everyone is ex Microsoft
fresh dawn
what team were you on at ttd?
hardy yoke
And if compensation is a consideration their equity is gonna go crazy after ipo
ehh idk about that
winged vector
Or Amazon
solar zealot
aws no brainer
pallid charm
ttd stock is dogwater apparently
but refreshers are good
their stock is v volatile
ornate mist
no pltr >> anduril
People jump the other way
winged vector
Ttd just got added to s and p 500
hardy yoke
People jump the other way
ppl go from google to a random YC startup
that doesn't mean anything
winged vector
The stock should recover
hardy yoke
ye but their stock is volatile
i mean it depends on how the rsu are calculated but u can usually just auto sell upon vest
pallid charm
patterns or s&p 500?
hardy yoke
like doesn't really matter if you're not holding the stock
ornate mist
U can def get AWS again, Anduril is a once in a lifetime play in the equity
low quail
Anduril name is good
winged vector
Anduril work life balance is really bad I have heard
hardy yoke
U can def get AWS again, Anduril is a once in a lifetime play in the equity
anduril is already series g and valued at $30 bill
you're not getting rich off anduril
pallid charm
^^
hardy yoke
AWS is super easy here
low quail
@wraith kettle
pallid charm
LMFAO
low quail
Thoughts?
pallid charm
doesn't tuff beef with you too spartacus?
hardy yoke

acoustic kestrel
anduril is better name, better talent density, cooler work, but annoying culture
rare iron
tuff beefs w every1 bro
weak idol
for learning and better outcomes anduril >>>
gritty iron
anduril by far unless you want to coast lol
acoustic kestrel
out of these I feel like its easy anduril no?
hardy yoke
a recruiter sees AWS > anduril ngl
pallid charm
cap
winged vector
No way
acoustic kestrel
a recruiter sees AWS > anduril ngl
not at any place that matters lol
weak idol
a recruiter sees AWS > anduril ngl
bruh why r u trolling
hardy yoke
i'm telling u guys recruiters are stupid
rare iron
a recruiter sees AWS > anduril ngl
agreed
acoustic kestrel
maybe a recruiter at mcdonalds lmao
winged vector
So many companies hate ex Amazon employees
pallid charm
why dafk
hardy yoke
like recruiters aren't CS majors i don't know why ppl find this crazy on this server
gritty iron
why are we optimizing for dumb recruiters just choose the better company bro
hardy yoke
recruiters no the big names faang, mango whatever
and maybe a shortlist their companies give them
like anduril is highly regarded but everyone knows what AWS is
winged vector
why are we optimizing for dumb recruiters just choose the better company bro
They give future opportunities, why else
gritty iron
your anduril network will be infinitely better, at some point in your career ur getting jobs thru network
hardy yoke
They give future opportunities, why else
bc recruiters are the ppl who decide u get an interview lol
i mean it's dumb but that's how the world works
weak idol
recruiters are not picking an aws swe over an anduril swe
hardy yoke
what do u think
acoustic kestrel
your anduril network will be infinitely better, at some point in your career ur ...
^
weak idol
maybe at f500
hardy yoke
recruiters are not picking an aws swe over an anduril swe
lwk they are
pallid charm
i feel like anduril swes will just have more to put on their resume
hardy yoke
like i think u guys are overestimating how prestigious anduril is
depsite the talent density
pallid charm
and hiring manager will see, and move the anduril guys forward
weak idol
like i think u guys are overestimating how prestigious anduril is
Zon has no prestige 😭
winged vector
Anduril can’t be that cracked they are a defense company still
hardy yoke
Zon has no prestige 😭
i mean it does ppl go from aws -> quant
winged vector
They are half ex Lockheed Martin
hardy yoke
Anduril can’t be that cracked they are a defense company still
that's what i'm saying
pallid charm
anduril has more work tho
hardy yoke
lowkey a recruiter will think anduril is just some defense company
pallid charm
that equates to better experience
acoustic kestrel
even if aws impresses recruiters anduril is better for nearly everything else imo
low quail
😐
weak idol
i mean it does ppl go from aws -> quant
it fr doesnt, everybody has it
hardy yoke
that equates to better experience
your random YC company has more work but that doesn't mean it's better than working at google
winged vector
Walmart could feed into faang doesn’t make it better then aws or ttd
hardy yoke
it fr doesnt, everybody has it
imo i see aws -> optiver/radix/imc/etc
rare iron
what matters to u most, pay, opportunities, smth else? maybe make a quick tier list
hardy yoke
but anduril is relatively more well known
i mean obv but ppl hate Amazon/AWS on here
when it does have res value + it pays more than anduril rn
weak idol
imo i see aws -> optiver/radix/imc/etc
imo i see anduril -> anthropic
like bruh zon is not a quant feeder 😭
pallid charm
i agree that AWS is good but anduril has better work without the downside of being a no name
zon is a quant feeder
winged vector
Amazon ain’t that good bruh
pallid charm
i have seen aws -> HRT
hardy yoke
@wraith kettle aws or anduril?
winged vector
i have seen aws -> HRT
Bro like 1 guy out of thousands of engineers
winged vector
At aws
pallid charm
fidelity could have 10k engineers and none of them would make quant
winged vector
One guy from aws probably got hrt it isn’t a feeder
weak idol
just go to linkedin lmfao
does it happen, yes. is that the common result? no / might be a stepping stone for a freshman at an ivy / top 10 cs program
winged vector
Who the fuck cares about fidelity
Someone from community college might get Jane street doesn’t make it a feeder
acoustic kestrel
the actual exit outcomes of anduril are better than aws lol
aws just has a million engineers so obviously some of them are cracked
pallid charm
i have seen AWS -> HRT fulltime
hardy yoke
i have seen AWS -> HRT fulltime
word
acoustic kestrel
average anduril swe def does way better than average aws
pallid charm
it's harder than google or meta
weak idol
also depends if quant is the goal, but either way anduril fs has better outcomes
gritty iron
W ragebait im ngl
wraith kettle

i feel like u should compare averages not outliers and average aws swe is lowk a bot

rip i thought we'd actually agree on something for once
but it's ok
woeful hearth
I feel offended that I actually read this question lol
pallid charm
average aws swe is stuck at sde 2 for the rest of their chud lives lmao
legit question btw because i'm early career: isn't job hopping relatively easy?
if you feel that you're stuck, can't you just interview for a better company?
hardy yoke
legit question btw because i'm early career: isn't job hopping relatively easy?
It used to be easier
gritty axle
woeful hearth
oh to me I would go to Anduril pretty easily
because not a fan of the other two companies lol
also where is the location of these companies that matters a lot lol if you're going to show the TC
woeful hearth
I mean so your TC from Anduril is higher cost of living based
hardy yoke
How much is paper money tho
hazy barn
no pltr >> anduril
Disagree
Actually
It’s very team dependent
Anduril has a lot of slop
woeful hearth
go Anduril.
low quail
Anduril is atl?
hazy barn
Anduril atl is mostly slop prolly
